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.

Thank you for budget friendly options on books I need to further my relationship with God
Would have Liked to known something about expedited shipping but could not get a phone number
Great selection of quality books with excellent prices! I've been shopping here for over ten years and have been left completely satisfied with my purchases every time.
The site has fair prices, good coupons, and a good search tool.
I ordered the book on Friday evening and it was here by Saturday night! Thanks!
All good, one exception I couldn't put in correct billing address. Card info is correct
Easy click order, thank you. Your pricing was clear, and it moved quickly.
Such an amazing experience to realize that at least 75% of your tittle requests will be honored. At an affordable price... if only the shipping cost was justifiable.

Answer: Let's just say, they advertise falsely. They misrepresent what they are selling. Buyer beware.

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 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.

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.
