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.

It was really easy. I have ordered from Alibris before and been very satisfied with the books as described, as well as the prices
You had the book I wanted at an exceptional price, and I'll receive it in plenty of time to take on vacation. You beat Amazon!
Good!----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Everything was as expected. Book came in the mail after about 14 days
Shipping charges are outrageously high. Prices before shipping charges are good.
Very reasonable price. Book came in excellent condition and in good time.
Hard to navigate website. Does not say when will arrive until the end.
Quick shipping, excellent condition I don't have much to say, but if I need fifty words, I'll keep going. Is that enough?
Thank you for ease of ordering! I hope it comes on time. First time buyer.
Alibris is always easy to purchase used books for the right price!

Smooth, uncomplicated Thank you Alibris. Usually has what I'm looking for.
Easy ordering, prompt shipping and arrival and book is in great condition.
Would not take valid credit card, had to use other card and the submit button is not working right
My credit card did not go through for some reason. A message appeared instructing me to edit the card information. However, the Alibris system provided no way to return to the card information entry page.
When I need a book, Alibris is my go-to. Never been disappointed.
