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.

I ordered books to help me with my counseling job so that I can better assist my clients who suffer from trauma and addiction. These used books were in very good condition! Great value!
Always a pleasure ordering from alibris. They always have what I want. The prices are reasonable, the material is always in good condition, and ordering is a breeze.
Shopping through Alibris is always easy. I'm sorry the shipping is so much. Would have ordered more books if that wasn't the case.
Great selection of books. Great prices and quick delivery, my favorite book store!
A repeat customer. Alibris is the "go to" vendor for hard to find reference books!
Received the book in short order, no problems and the book was as described.
Love the cart optimizer. I am a long-time user of the Alibris service. Always gets better.
The paper on this small loose leaf version is so thin its hard to turn the pages. Yes it was $105.00 not the hardback $300, but really? Honestly didn't use it cause all I needed was in the lecture. Sorry I bought it.
Just ordered so can't offer anything! If you just order how can you tell about the quality of service. So far so good.
Easy to navigate the website. Rarely do they not have the books I'm looking for.
A pleaseure!
Though it did take a little bit longer - it was an international trip (USA to Canada) and I live in the middle of nowhere. The tracking seemed to spot in a random center though and then it magically appeared at my delivery location. The book is in excellent condition. Thanks to the seller.
Excelente producto, llego en buenas condiciones. Ahora estoy disfrutando de este producto
I love this site. I've ordered from them a couple times and in both instances delivery was fast and my books were in great condition. Will order from them again and again! Great prices!
Books for great prices in excellent condition. I will be buying my monthly reads from here from now on
Arrived in perfect condition! I encourage everyone to order from this online bookstore. Tell your friends!
I appreciate how easy it was to make corrections and changes. I look forward to shopping with you in the future.
Always reliable. Only rarely has there been a problem and each time it has been quickly taken care of. This is my main source for book purchases, my "go to" place.
The book arrived in very good condition. Transaction was smooth and no difficulties. Will buy again!
Quick & easy. Had what I was looking for. Thank you for asking me.
Answer: Let's just say, they advertise falsely. They misrepresent what they are selling. Buyer beware.

Answer: Really Michael, contact you directly? Why should we have to. There is a bad trend here. Seems MANY of us contact you and you DONT respond
Answer: I saw the fake stellar reviews and did not dig deeper. I til... I had an issue. Initially, I wanted to give a small seller some business after COVID and the site looked really good. What a big mistake that was! Shame on this outfit.
