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.

Fast easy simple to find and checkout.
Live long and prosper 🖖
Your website is easy to use and I usually find more than what I am looking for! Thank you for offering an option besides Amazon.
Many sellers have no idea of what ABA designations (GOOD, VERY GOOD, etc.) mean, but that's not your fault.
Great service and will always use Alibis it is the best company
This is the third time in less than 24 hours that I am trying to order this title. It seems to not be available. They put a new copy said to be available into my cart and I order it only to find it is canceled.
Easy to find and check out. Quick checkout. Easy to navigate.
I go to alibris for old and used books that I want and they frequently have what I want at a reasonable price and the delivery happens as promised.
Easily found what I wanted for a great shopping experience.
Glitchy interface experiences. Too many rigid order needs. One (of many) examples was a request during my order placement for state 2 letter code with o periods.
Book was in very good condition. Received it as expected. Thank you! Received it last week sometime. Don't recall the date. Today's date is 7/7/25 I thought at first this seemed like a novel idea. But I don't recall when I received it. I'll put today's date inthe box, but I received before today!
The book was received before promised and is in like new condition.
I love Alibris, both for their vast and affordable selections and for their streamlined and simple checkout process. I have been a customer for a VERY long time. (I'm 80).
Order timed out the first time, probably due to high Xmas traffic
Excellent thank you. Delivery was fast and accurate with my order filled correctly
Everything on the website was clear: cost and condition of the book. I found the website more easy to navigate than many others that I've used.
Web site super easy to navigate. Have all the books I need!
Confusing - PayPal read $4 and change but Alibris read $13 and change for the charge. The individual and total shipping charges were not accurate at different times in the purchasing experience. Not confident in the process. We'll see when the books arrive. The price optimization tool is new and potentially useful.
Quickly found what I wanted. I was looking for a book recommended by a friend, and found it used on Alibris after looking online.
Intuitive, ease of use, comprehensive selections and nothing more
Easy purchasing and appreciate the follow up. A title that is hard to find and in great condition
Awesome, quick, outstanding quality every time, thank you
I love books, especially used. Smash the patriarchy, and all hail goddes cuntry.
