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.

I'm very pleased with the quality and speedy delivery. Thank you
Love ordering books from Alibris, I have been a customer since 2005 I think? Awesome, I have found so many great deals over the years.
Exactly what we wanted and near perfect condition.
Prompt shipping. Would buy from this shop again.
The book arrived in a timely manner and was in perfect condition.
I understand paying shipping twice for 2 books from different sellers but your shipping fee page shows 4.99 for 1 book and 3.49 each additional.Your system charged 4.99 each and only contact is thru email. I reluctantly paid it because I need the books and couldn't get a live answer. Feels deceitful.It's a petty amount but not for a company selling the amount of books a distributer does. It adds up.
Easy! Simple, even for geezers like me. I highly recommend your site.
It was very easy, very clear directions, rapid processing.
I understand it's harder to protect paperbacks but I paid for a new version because I wanted it pristine. Shipping was fast and overall the book was in good condition but the spine was damaged with folds and bends having been shipped in an envelope. Will order again though, overall am pleased but just wish more care was put into protecting the book.
Great and easy selection! Always (almost) get exactly what you r want at great price n
Received quickly and in very good condition. Have never had a bad experience with Alibris
It was a quick as and easy ordering process to get the book I wanted.
I instantly found the book I was searching for, at a price lower than I had seen elsewhere!
I found was I was looking for here as usual. Got a good price too!
Awesome selection of used books, fair prices, timely shipping
Easy, but password creation box is really too small. OK... 50 characters. H... Reputation and stands out as a quality, unique book experience. Cerebral and quality.
Everything was great - thank you very much!
The delivery took a total of 20 days - completely fine. The packaging also arrived here in good condition.
I like the selection and the information that helps me choose a vendor. My orders have always been shipped quickly and packaged safely.
Easy to use. Nice prices. And 29 more characters worth of praise.
I was able to find the book I wanted at a great used price. The shipping is going to be quick.
Very easy to select my preferred copy, and to place the order. I was looking for an old, somewhat obscure book and it ended up being so easy to find and order.
Book was better than described, was carefully wrapped, and came earlier than promised. Perfect service!
