Alibris Reviews Summary
Alibris enjoys a generally positive reputation among customers, particularly for its wide selection of used books at competitive prices and reliable shipping. Many customers appreciate the timely delivery and the ability to track orders, contributing to overall satisfaction. However, concerns arise regarding the variability in book conditions, with some items not meeting expectations, and delays in shipping for urgent needs. Additionally, the separate shipping fees for each book can deter purchases. Despite these issues, the platform remains a favored choice for many due to its extensive inventory and user-friendly website.

Website is user friendly. I was able to update my information without too much difficulty.
It has overall been a good experience. Please send me this order as quickly as possible because I will be going on vacation in two weeks.
Thank you

Pretty good... was able to find and order the book I was looking for.
Easy. But it would have been a little easier if it were reiterated that I purchased volume 1 of the four). It shows on the book image it's volume 1 and is referenced so once during the order process. But referencing vol 1 as "001" on the final order detail is a little obscure:
Interpreter's Dictionary of the Bible: 001
Thought I would get the discount on first order for signing up... didn't realize I had to spend $50 to get.
Great selection and many buying options. My first choice when searching for books, music and movies!
Very easy to find what I wanted & check out fast & easy.
The books I want are available. The condition of the books is accurately described by Alibris. Prices are very reasonable and ordering is easy.
It said I could enter a password when I finished, but never did. Plus I would like the option of buying from one seller to save on shipping, but there doesn't seem to be a way to do that.
I have been pleased with the books I have ordered. As described. Shipping takes longer than I think it should since I am in USA and ordering in country.
It's been good. However it's not clear if I am buying or renting the book. I think I am buying it.
Wonderful experience, the only place I can find hard to find books on the topics I love!
Easy to find what I was looking for. Good price. Easy checkout.
Site was easy to search, found exactly what I was looking for at a fair price.
Smooth transaction. 1 star first because I haven't received the item yet. Will rate 5 stars if it came in good condition.
A number of listings are confusing because they indicate dvd and vhs in the description.
Very easy with all info stored. Rapid shipment from all suppliers on past orders.
Easy to follow to order. Being a senior, it helps to keep things simple!
All around pretty easy searching and I found what I needed quickly at a good price!
I was able to find ample copies of the particular book, log in and PayPal smoothly. Your competitor thrift books sent me the WRONG BOOK and will not correct the mistake. Customer service matters. I'm yours for life!
