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.

Received in good condition, as described, and shipped in a timely way. Price was fair. Would recommend
Ordered from Alibris on and off for years, and they always excel. The book was as described, shipping prompt and well packaged. Doesn't get any better than this.
Excellent experience, shipped quickly, well-packed, book in condition as promised and good deal. Overall, I couldn't ask for more, it was well, perfect.
Book took a very long time to arrive -- perhaps outside the boundaries you listed, but don't recall. In the meantime, I had to go to the public library to get the book to be ready for a group discussion.
Shopping fine -- will evaluate how long it takes to receive the book
It would help to know where its shipping from & a more complete description of product
This was the easiest thing I have done all day! I found the item referenced in another publication and decided to purchase it.
Easy shopping and checkout process. I appreciate the effort you have put into this site and I have visited in the past and certainly will do again in the near future. Thank you
Easy, great available stock. Will most likely use again. Thanks
You always do a good job! I don't like writing these - I don't have anything else to say. I wanted the books after seeing the Power of Myth rebroadcast on PBS.
You are a great place to get used books I think that succinctly says it all.
A little hard to navigate, but doable from the comfort of my bedroom.
Quick, easy to navigate, found exactly what was wanted, good price
Found exactly what I was looking for. Easy ordering! Excited to receive books.
Will purchase in the future books from company, enjoyed the book and glad that it was also signed by the author, overall great experience. Thank you!
Well designed website and everything you might be looking for can be found here!
Thank you. Great experience!
I would definitely recommend
Snail mail is snail mail for a reason. The book is great and came in Excellent condition. Very satisfied.
It is Always enjoyable shopping for used books at Alibris books!
Check out was easy. The book I wanted was available. I will use Alibris again.
Every thing arrived on time, great condition, No problems! More than satisfied. Need I say more? Would you prefer poetry? Not likely.
ALIBRIS has been good to me over the years. First discovered ALIBRIS as a student and found the text books I needed. Continue to find the books I am looking for at the best prices.
Received the book fine. Almost 3 weeks later, I received an email concerning the order that only had the order number and not the book title, so I had no idea what book order was being asked about. I'm old. I had to reset my password to get back into my account and check to see what I had ordered. I order books from different places, for myself or my church. All this, so I could go back to your current email and say yes, I received the book 3 weeks ago! I could have spent this time on some other activity.
I had trouble with some of the buttons. I had to choose "Add to Shopping Cart" twice on two of my selections before they appeared in my cart. Paypal had some issues with only the shipping amount showing up at first.
Has me wondering if it's just me! Ha!
