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.

Timely and with updates. Quality of book is good too - as described.
Easy to purchase, quick, clear.--- would highly recommend.
Ordering on line was easy enough. Hard to evaluate until the book arrives.
The book I sought is esoteric, but easy to find on your site and in good condition. Thank you!
Very pleased to find music available through Alibris. Ordering was easy.
Great Selection in specific categories. Easy to order, delivery was good. Books in excellent shape.
Alibris always has what I want at good prices and I would much rather pay for shipping rather than buy from that other "A" place.
Got the books I wanted. They were as described and delivered in a timely manner Will buy again in the future. Thanks.
Quick and easy purchase... been using them for years! Good condition and good prices.
Very responsive when a question was asked. Easy ordering. Now I anticipate the books arrival!
Easy to navigate website, search engine is quick and concise
My order of Order #*******-1 had been cancelled. This is a replacement book, in other words the 2nd time I'm ordering it.
My only complaint would be that I would prefer the book I find to open a new tab or window, so I can go back and forth easily from the search list, looking for specific stores or other information comparisons.
Couldn't apply code since never found where to enter it. Code was display for $15 off.
The process to find what I was looking for was easy, and ordering was a breeze.
Looking forward to good service. I am hoping for the best from Alibris. I am interested in having a good experience.
I found that the manuscript was a photocopy of the same book held by Purdue Library at some point. It was clear it was not an original print but some sort of manipulated photocopy. The text, for my purposes, was fine. I am not sure how this figures in the grand scheme of copyright though!
I used different search parameters and the books I was interested in were top or close to top of the list.
Everything worked. Clear information at each stage of purchase.
Good price! Good layout for product. This rare book is hard to find.
I adore this platform and the selection available. 10/10 experience from start to finish.
You had the books I wanted. Hooray. I had trouble ringing up purchase. My fault. Not computer savvy.
