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.

Hardcover novel arrived exactly as described; pristine condition, front to back; considerate packaging; prompt shipping.
I wanted this book for a small group at school. I ordered 2 in case one of the students wanted to look through as I read to them. The last picture chart page did have the feeling chart and one didn't. So I was lucky I received one with the actual chart in place. Ordering was a breeze and Delivery was quick. Prices were awesome. Everything is very good satisfaction.
Really awesome book. I love it very much forever and ever, it's my favoritest book ever ever in the whole wide world

Prior experience with Alibris has always been excellent.
Your website makes it easy to find what I'm looking for and choose the condition of books.
The item ordered showed up as expected! I don't really have much to add but this description requires a minimum of 100 characters hopefully this does the trick!
Ordered my book, which was very easy. Delivery was quicker than anticipated and greatly appreciated.
The seller followed up with a question about the delivery address, and I received the book promptly.
So far so good. That is all I have to say now and you should not be asking for more until I receive the product and determine the validity and effectiveness of this site.
Very quick very easy exactly what I want. Thank you. I'm glad you are a source for books.
It was easy to shop and locate books in a series that I was looking for and the prices are very fair.
Answer: Let's just say, they advertise falsely. They misrepresent what they are selling. Buyer beware.
Answer: Hi Dennis, That depends on where the seller is located and where your deliver address is as well. Generally, shipments within the States are delivered within a week or so, though holiday shipping might slow down a bit. 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.
