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.

Fast delivery, excellent packaging, and the book's condition was even better than advertised. Thank you.
Perfect transaction--book was delivered quickly, is in the very good condition advertised, and nicely packaged.
Very easy, straightforward. We'll see if the book is, in fact, the quality level stated.

You always have the odd books i want or need. Blessings to all small book sellers
Got the book on time.
No problems.
Sent it to my sister-in-law in Norway who had asked for it.
Saying you have to have more text in this box is annoying.
So far so good. Good prices and promise of quick shipping. Hope that happens because it's for a book club and I'm late to get the book.
This is my second time ordering and I was kind of disappointed in the delivery time. It took almost 3 weeks to receive the books.
I'm always happy with Alibris. Now I get to fall in love with the Grapes of Wrath all over again. Thanks.
Very easy checkout process, great price, fast site, complete book description
I odered a used book it came and I had no issues. I would order again if I need a used book for my book club
The quality of the book was good including the book jacket. It arrived when I expected it. The description of the book was accurate.
Everything went well, but keep this in mind: If your package shows is has stopped in a random location in the USA, and you are waiting for a delivery to Canada, note that the tracking details may well have changed, and your package is still en route but with a different carrier.
I ordered the book and received it. It is good bookstore. It is very good job. I am very happy. Good service
I had been looking for this volume at a reasonable price and was happy to find it on alibris. The condition of the book was like new as described.

I'm very happy with the selection and the prices for used books.
Very happy with website and selection. Delivery for previous order was expeditious.
Two books each charged the same shipping? Seems excessive, so I only ordered one.
Perfect book for my coffee table, visitors love the book too!
Answer: Let's just say, they advertise falsely. They misrepresent what they are selling. Buyer beware.

If you send us the details with your order number in an email to [email protected] we can look into the specifics for you. Thank you for writing. Michael B. Alibris Customer Service
Answer: Hi Valerie, If you have had a problem with your Visa or PayPal transactions on our site, please let us know the details at [email protected] so that we can investigate for you. Thank you for your question. Michael B. Alibris Customer Service
Answer: HI Zoila, Delivery timeframes within the States are usually between 3 and 8 days, but it depends on where the seller is that is shipping the item to you. If you have already placed an order, please contact us at [email protected] with your order details and we can investigate for you. Thank you for writing. Michael B. Alibris Customer Service
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.
