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.

It was nice to find a textbook for less than the astronomical price that the school tries to charge and not have to wait forever for it to be delivered
I use alibris all the time and encourage others to do so. Keep it up.
Website is easy to use and books are at a good price, have used it repeatedly
Bank called to make sure I purchased what I had. Didn't like that. I keep wondering if someone has my card number now.
FAST and easy. I can order a book i find in a footnote and only have to break my reading for a minute or less.
Everything seems to work fine. But I hate answering these surveys.
Hoping it arrives on time! I'll give you a great review if it does!
Easy to order. Takes a little longer and it is hard to bulk purchase without multiple freight bills.
Delighted to find audiobooks on CD, at a great value, from an independent small seller.
The website is easy to use and once you have an account the ordering is breeze. Thank you for the great prices.
Love being able to purchase books that were pre-owned or below regular cost.
Easy to make decisions, good info provided, several options to choose from. Front cover of 2 out 3 books creased back on bottom I assume from inserting into tight envelope.
No frills experience - multiple books in various conditions from a myriad of sellers. I ordered "Tomorrow and Tomorrow and Tomorrow" and got it on time in the condition I expected
JUST OVERALL TIRED OF THE TIME IT TAKES ME TO DO STUFF ON LINE. MAKE AN ACCOUNT FOR EVERYTHING--IT IS NEVERENDING. THIS WAS OK TO DO.
Was not easy to proceed forward without loosing entered info. ( On phone)
Wonderful to find the book, and appreciate the ease of ordering.
The book I ordered was exactly as described, was fairly priced and arrived timely. I would definitely order through Alibris again!
It's good, you have options ranging from quality and price.
It was easy to place my order. I did a search and there were several options.
Always a pleasure shopping here. The best experience in online bookstores!
