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.

You always make it so easy to order. Thank you. I recommend your site to all book lovers.
This was an extremely pleasant experience. I found just what I was looking for, at a very fair price, and it was delivered well before I ever expected it! As a bonus, I didn't have to buy it from a corporate giant or chain store - it came from a real bookstore. This was my third experience with Alibris, so now I'm confident the prior experiences were the norm, not the exception.
It was Great received books in a timely manner! Thanks so much
I'm thrilled that you had the book I needed right now. It was easy to order. And now I eagerly await its arrival.

Returning customer! Wish there was a way to consolidate shipping costs!
Easy to use and like the descriptions of the books
I am very satisfied with my choice to borrow e-book so that I can prepare for an exam. It was easy and I enjoy the outcome.
I bought the books! Take yes for an answer! And now I have to enter at least 50 characters? Nonsense!
Always a pleasure to use this site for what I am looking for in books and music.
Answer: Let's just say, they advertise falsely. They misrepresent what they are selling. Buyer beware.

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.
