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.

Reliable, convenient. Forget Amazon! Thank you for your fine service.
Good condition, feels like it was loved by the previous owner. :) no rips or major tears
I was skeptical because it was so cheap, but I was happily surprised by the condition and overall quality of the book
The 4 books were in excellent condition and each was shrink wrapped in clear paper! I will be sure to watch the site for other books I would like to read!
I easily found the book I wanted and got checked out very quickly!
Happy w/ purchase, price, & ease of ordering. Received in a timely manner.
If you want a longer review, you'll be disappointed, as I have nothing more to add.
Super easy! Happy to have found this site and my out of print book! Yay!
I received the ordered book in a reasonable time; it arrived in perfect condition. There was no problem in ordering it.
The website had listed it as "acceptable," which is the sort of classification one applies to wounded dogs or men in borrowed suits. In truth, it's perfect.
Good price for used book. Easy to navigate website. It also had the book I wanted to purchase in paperback.
You always have the book that I am looking for.
Super Service
I do like to visit and order items on your business site.
Thank you for all you do.

The site is super easy to use. Great selections at great prices.
Book arrived as promised. Book is in Fine condition. No problems. They want 100 characters. Here they are. -G
Ordered a book that I didn't want to spend $25 on. Got it from Alibris quickly and it was about $5. It's a no-brainer.
Book was as described and it arrived on time with updates to keep me informed. It was well packaged.
Answer: Let's just say, they advertise falsely. They misrepresent what they are selling. Buyer beware.

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.
