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.

Books were easy to find, to determine their condition, and check out was not clumsy.
Great, except I wanted to go back & look for another book before I completed check out, but I couldn't figure out how to do it.
I'm deferring to alibris as an option to amazon. The site has been great.
I am impresses with the variety of books that you have.
Thank you!
I dislike the "bait and switch" $5 coupon offer for signing up for newsletters, etc. True, I did get a $5 coupon, but it is useless unless I spend $50 or more. I would like to be removed from your newsletter distribution list.
Excellent experience overall. Easy to find items and for a good price!
:)
OK, but a lot of the books seemed unreasonably priced. $130 for a $15 book?
Easy to find what the book and easy checkout process.
Fast transaction, everything is great, but it's a pretty clunky interface with massive fonts, no pics, etc.
The website is easy to navigate and easy to shop on!
I found the books I loved for my great nieces and hope they love them as much. One of the nieces plays with her princesses and has different voices for each character.
No confusion with either the product itself nor with the shipping information. Everything worked as it should've..
I like the suggested copies and save on alternate copies features.
Great price, but shipping is taking longer than expected and I was not sent tracking info. When I contacted the seller they were not helpful. They said I would receive shipping info once the item was shipped. I placed the order on the 25th of January. The website says it was shipped on the 26th and could arrive by Feb 6th. Still no tracking info.
Options clearly laid out, new, used, etc. and condition of book, reviews of sellers.
I don't want to shop Amazon anymore. It was great to find what I wanted here, and the check out was easy. Thank you!
I never received the $5.00 coupon to apply to my order.
