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.

They cancelled my order after it was placed and charged. I have not yet seen a refund
I find the books I want to fair prices. I always check Alibris first for any book not carried by my local bookstore.
Easy to find the book I wanted. Shipping time was great. Book was in excellent condition.
Always pleased to work with Alibris. Experience continues positive from order to order. To me, Alibris represents great value and can always find what I'm looking for. Supporting small businesses, as well as non-profits, is the right thing to do.
I know I have to pay for the books but the shipping charges are higher than the book charge.
I wish the shipping was lower and the coupons would be good on lower prices
Always enjoy browsing books on Alibris. My experience has been great over the years with used books in good condition.
It was very easy to navigate your website and not a lengthy process.
They had what I needed, and it arrived reasonably quickly. I would have like to have paid a little less, of course, but it is an academic title and the good ones tend to cost more, both new and used.

I've used you for many years and always been happy. Large selection and good service.
Great Site, easy to search and find what I'm looking for. Quick and easy, just the way I like it!
I was looking at purchasing some hard cover books and the price was better than expected and the quality is outstanding.
My question about a book was answered promptly by the vendor.
The book was easy to locate on the site, and the price was reasonable.
They have the best selection of books. At good prices and reasonable shipping costs.
I was pleased with the condition of the books. Despite receiving 3 separate deliveries during a nation wide snow storm, delivery was quick. I would recommend Alibris to others.
Good so far! Looking at the internet to chase down this book for a reasonable price.I appreciate the sale, only wish the sticky part from a price tag was not on the book cover. Yuk!
You can find anything here! Easy site to use. I love it here! Hooray! Hooray!
Muy bien ojala existan por mucho tiempo. Larga vida a los libros viejos.
Found a used copy of the book I needed right away at a great price.
You said that something would be cheaper and it wasn't. You calculated the shipping twice. Get rid of this new optimizing price.
Selection and prices were great, but I didn't get to put in my coupon code.
