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.

Book descriptions could be worked on especially when I'm trying to hunt down research books
Excellent site. I love that it is easy to find the exact books I am looking for. The upfront pricing is great, the description of the book included is helpful.
Easy to search - lots of details about quality and condition of materials.
My cart showed some books 1st time, and the when I rechecked there was a difference. Had to edit again.
Shopping here for years. Have always found books that I could not find anywhere here
I can always find what I want, and the buying experience is quick and easy.
Just so easy. I typed in the title of the book and it popped right up. Several sellers to choose from. I chose the seller closest to the recipient. Thanks for being so easy to deal with.
Great. I just wish your coupon codes were straight forward. One that should have worked didn't work. By the description it should have.
The independent sellers are easy to work with. Every book I look for is here. Items come fast. Alibis keeps it all together.
Easy to order - "hard to get discounts
Discounts seem harad to get and somewhat mis-leading - so one gets NO discounts
I was thrilled to find both books I wanted at reasonable prices.
So far so good only one botched order out of dozens.
It was easy to find the book I wanted at a great price, even with shipping.
Quick and easy! Super cheap too! Got a book for my college class so fast and was able to get my reading done in time
Quick and easy! Hopefully the shipping is the same way
:)
Good except: 1) want easy way to transfer from wish list to shopping cart.
Always received the correct item. There was one instance where an item was missing with the book. I emailed the distributor and they sent me a brand new copy with everything in it. Just wow!
Good price cheap shipping quick and easy checkout. What more can you ask?
Always reliable service and great source for used books
I had to change my shipping and billing addresses and I got lost in the menus more than once before I got it right.
