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.

Alibis is always a reliable source. Their prices are always very reasonable. I would say the only negative is the time it takes to receive the item can be a bit long. But if you can wait, they are a great option.
I received one of two books, "Captain Bligh & Mr Christian", and was informed that the other book, "Ishi: Last of His Tribe", was no longer available. Delivery time was excellent and the information provided about the order was also excellent.
Thanks. I do not wish to add any more comments. This is getting a bit silly.
Wanted a specific out of print book, found it on alibris, it came promptly and I'm enjoying it very much.
The website is very convenient but the price of the delivery is very expensive and not really as it is written before going to the last step to order.
1st time we will see the follow through other than that I'm good
The whole process is smoothly run and leaves you wanting to buy more
It was a good experience. The book arrived quickly and it was as promised. A lot of great discounted used books on this site.
Alibris offered the best price for the item i wanted. Definately recommend!
Perfect. Website easy to navigate, I can set very particular parameters to locate exactly what I want.
There was no issues no long waiting on anything. I'm satisfied 😁
Good service over all. A bit slow, but tha's to be expected I guess.
Order books that were sent on time. Were correct and properly packed.
Alibris is great for finding books not available in local shops, but I would prefer being able to consolidate shipping if I order from the same vendor. Since it's possible to shop a specific vendor, the only benefit to doing so would be to consolidate shipping costs.
Excellent. What else can I say? Keep up the good work and please keep prices LOW!
Quick delivery for a busy law student. Very helpful! I was very happy to find this book for such a good price.
So far so good hope it turns out good. This is my first time on your site
