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.

Seller delivered as promised. Book arrived in great condition. Thank you!
Easy to use website and search engine made this a painless process.
I recently purchased a few used comic books from Alibris, and overall, I'm really happy with the experience. The selection was impressive, and I was able to find some older issues that are hard to come by elsewhere. The condition of the comics was as described—used but still in good shape, with minimal wear. Shipping was reasonably fast, and the packaging kept everything safe during transit. I appreciated the detailed listings and the fair pricing, especially for out-of-print titles.
The only reason I'm giving 4 stars instead of 5 is that one of the comics had a bit more wear than I expected based on the description. Still, it wasn't a dealbreaker, and I'd definitely shop with Alibris again for more collectibles.
Highly recommend for comic book collectors looking for affordable, used options!
Came quickly. In great condition. Pages intake. No damage with or without. Came exactly as described.
I'll know more when I receive the books. The price is right even with the S&H
They are indeed in brand new condition. The booklets were in much better condition than the box In which they were shipped.
I ordered a book that had been suggested to me, I found the same book for 10 more than Alibris.
Book condition was accurate. Books in new condition. Box has a minor repairable issue noted in description. Order processing and shipping was fast. Order status communication was very good and much appreciated.
I easily found the books I wanted and checkout was seamless.
I do not do "reviews." I do not do "reviews." I do not do "reviews." I do not do "reviews." I do not do "reviews."
Shipped on time and in an orderly fashion. All the books came as promised.
I order five or six items. I made sure they all came from the exact same vendor hoping to get one lump sum for shipping. Not only each item had separate shipping costs, but every single item was packaged and shipped individually. I've never encountered such wasteful packaging.
Both books were pristine - better than I expected for "used" books. Hope to purchase from this seller again.
Was able to find the books I wanted at a reasonable cost. Navigation of website and checkout were easy.
Every book I order from alibris comes in great condition, is affordable and most importantly for me, avoids Amazon. I love alibris!
I received my book on time. For being used it looks brand new. It's in perfect shape. Thank you so much.
So far, so good! Easy to find what I wanted + arrange for billing & shipping.
