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.

Obscure and much desired novels for inexpensive prices
Great selection of books at great prices. Very happy with this site.
Good selection, easy to order. I had to go elsewhere to get some idea of the contents, but that was no big problem. If you know what you want, this is the place.
I thought shipping was free for orders over $39 but apparently it's not.
They located the book I was looking for in a timely manner Thank you
Excellent online store. Books needed are available!
Easy to navigate website, with a quick and logical checkout process. A+
I often find what I'm looking for here when I can't find it elsewhere.
Nice website. Easy to purchase! Not many clicks. Instant, or almost, gratification.
This is the first time I've used Alibris. So like the saying goes, first impressions last a lifetime
Such a good selection when I need something out of the ordinary.
Easy to locate and purchase the book that I needed.
It's nice to see that you apply a change in currency for the coupons as well. I was buying from you through Amazon but it's even cheaper when I cut Jeff Bezos out. Thanks and cheers!
Great layout of vendors, prices. Too bad there were no reviews of my book, but glad there was a brief synopsis.
Need to include holiday movies in separate slot. Thanks
You're always the site I go to for old books! Thank you.
Easy to find the things we were looking for! Thanks.
A lil' twicksy with the security code. Never know if "they" want the one on the front or the back of the card. Thanks~!
Answer: Let's just say, they advertise falsely. They misrepresent what they are selling. Buyer beware.
Answer: Hi Dennis, That depends on where the seller is located and where your deliver address is as well. Generally, shipments within the States are delivered within a week or so, though holiday shipping might slow down a bit. If you send us the details with your order number in an email to [email protected] we can look into the specifics for you. Thank you for writing. Michael B. Alibris Customer Service
Answer: Hi Valerie, If you have had a problem with your Visa or PayPal transactions on our site, please let us know the details at [email protected] so that we can investigate for you. Thank you for your question. Michael B. Alibris Customer Service
Answer: HI Zoila, Delivery timeframes within the States are usually between 3 and 8 days, but it depends on where the seller is that is shipping the item to you. If you have already placed an order, please contact us at [email protected] with your order details and we can investigate for you. Thank you for writing. Michael B. Alibris Customer Service
Answer: Really Michael, contact you directly? Why should we have to. There is a bad trend here. Seems MANY of us contact you and you DONT respond
Answer: I saw the fake stellar reviews and did not dig deeper. I til... I had an issue. Initially, I wanted to give a small seller some business after COVID and the site looked really good. What a big mistake that was! Shame on this outfit.
