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.

Nice selection, a lot of good cheap books that are right up my alley
Very easy to purchase a book that I wanted and they have a good selection.
So far so good. Don't know what else to say at this time. *******
Inexpensive and efficient, Alibris beats Amazon by miles!
Easy and good value for current and old books. I use it frequently.
I've been a member of Alibris for many years. Very seldom have I had a problem, and never a serious one. They usually have any book I seek, even those not carried by other dealers.
I have been searching for this particular edition for a very long time. So satisfied that I found a source!
The site was easy to navigate and understand. It was quick and easy to place an order. Thank you
I've purchased from Alibri for many years. The books I've wanted are in inventory and at good prices.
It was easier on my laptop than on my phone. I got lower prices and faster service.
No complaints. Books shipped super quickly, I have had a couple experiences with this shop, and all of them were a pleasure: effective search engine, easy to put books in cart and purchase. The books ship out quickly and arrive as advertised with no imperfections, and reasonable prices, so I would definitely recommend to others.
Easy to find the book I wanted and was a quick check out. A trusted website I've used for years.
Easy and practical. Keep bringing great books. I like to read rare books and mostly latin americansbor related to ancient cultures
I was able to quickly find what I was looking for. Shipping turned out to be free.
My book was easy to find and the order process was quick. Like the follow up option.
The service, shipping, price, perfect condition of the books (3 book set) were unmatchable.
I always find what I want at a great price. Fast and simple search and purchase process.
Always so fast and easy if you know what you're looking for. So fun to browse, if you don't know what you're looking for.
As always...wonderful! O'K Great, Super, Worth every minute of the search.
Great---Wonderful...very happy. Service is super...
Better than Amazon for price, format and choice. It always pays to shop for books.
Answer: Let's just say, they advertise falsely. They misrepresent what they are selling. Buyer beware.

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.
