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.

Without incident, item was received. The vendor used the order number as tracking so I needed to contact them for that. Once in hand, I was able to track and therefore be onsite when item arrived.
Order *******
Seller: More Than Words
So far so good given I have only just ordered the item and not left the website!
I forgot that the USPS mail delivery time had changed and it took longer than I've experienced with my orders so I got a little impatient
Rapid reply to first order; easy to find the backup copy and order it
Came quicker than expected! The book cover is a bit bent/folded but that is okay because it is still in very good shape! Thank you.
Quick, easy, good prices, fair shipping. Would buy from this store again.
This was my first time ordering and the online purchase experience was easy. Will certainly continue!
I found the hardcover book I wanted and received it in near-new condition. Will check Alibris when buying anymore hardcover books.
Received it quickly, looks practically new! Enjoying my Bible in my study time and in Bible study.
Good straight forward and easy to use and inexpensive for used books
Everything went well, thank you! A+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++×+++++++++++++
The books I ordered arrived fast and they came in perfect condition. No flaws on them, literally brand new. Would purchase here again!
I got my book in a few days. Was very pleased with Alibirs. Will check them again if I need another book.
Had the book I wanted at good price. Shopping was more than book though.
I got my book in a timely manner. It was well priced and in good condition. If I am in need of another book, which I am likely to be because I teach high school English (this purchase was personal, however), I will be likely to use this site again.
I rate you 5 stars - that's enough! Quit trying to make me type a narrative every time I order from you.
I received notive that my order was cancelled because unavailable, but then I did receive the book?
As an American I've decided to support as many Canadian businesses as I can. This order is perfect in every way. The shipping was so quick!
The soaps are wonderful. I am having a hard time deciding who to gift them to and which ones to keep for myself. It looks like I will never be able to cross the border, at least for a while, but I'm glad that these soaps made it safely through customs. One grateful American here enjoying a great product!
First rate service, packaging, and promptness. Product was well described and much appreciated. I am always glad to order from Midtown Scholar.
The books were in great condition, fair packaging and the prices were reasonable! Would definitelyi do business again
I wish it were easier to see where an item would ship from, or better yet, that we could filter options by closest geographical option, in order to better weigh the "cost" of shipping something not only money-wise, but ecologically.
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.
