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.

Most shipments are promptly received. The last order I'm still waiting for it to leave WA. The order was placed 6/25. I am very disappointed in the handling of that order.
Every time I went to the checkout one of the books I had put in my cart was missing
Nice buying options for each title. Also like the suggestions for savings in the cart.
I would like to see the shipping cost listed next to the book cost when looking for books.
It's ok finding books. Checkout was a bit tricky because I was trying to use a coupon from an email that said $5 off but didn't tell the restrictions.
I am still not tech. Savvy so I still have a hard time navigating
