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's always so easy to find what I'm looking for on this site.
Didn't get promised discount. Tells you not to order twice, but I had to in order to buy. Also wanted to re create my user registry
Good books at great prices, easy to search, easy to order- good work
The book was shipped very quickly and packaged securely. The item was exactly as described by the seller and was a great value.
One book had a good price, but when I wanted to add it to my order, the price was higher.
I've been ordering from your site for many years, I so appreciate the availability and the price which allows me to indulge in my favorite past time reading.
The review title tells my experience. Thanks again, Alibris.
Easy to follow instructions and intuitive ordering--like it!
Very easy to order from Alibris and happy to find the book which I saw a short article about and find that it was available quickly and easily through Alibris.
I like how the book is at a discounted price but having to pay for the shipping is not a favorite all in all good deal
My friend asked for an original hardcover version of The Wizard of Oz and what I received was an updated Childcren's version so I had to pay more attentin the second time when I ordered the original 15 books by Frank Baum in one volume which I rfeceived in a timely fashion Thank You
I'm new to Alibris and am happy with my order. The book cover was in great condition despite being preowned! I placed this order on Dec 16 and like the order stated it came before Christmas, around Dec 19 or 20! So I am happy to report that Alibris pulled through for a Christmas surprise and great reference book, Thank You!
I decline. If you want me to cooperate don't try to force me write a stupid review. I changed my "how likely " from a 10 to a 6 because of this.
Very easy and fast to order this great book! Thank you for having the book that I was looking for today!
Book arrived in good condition with no damage. Would order from this seller again.
Order was quick and easy. Shipping was prompt and arrived in great condition. Overall a great experience.
Answer: Let's just say, they advertise falsely. They misrepresent what they are selling. Buyer beware.

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.
