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.

Easy to navigate site and find what I am looking for with a variety of choices
The cookbooks are easy to find, and I have enjoyed ordering from here for years.
I have always had a good shopping experience here. I like to buy these cookbooks for wedding shower gifts. It was given to me a long time ago by a good friend and I like to pass it on
Please,I hope I will get my books because last time it lost while shipped.
Keep up the good work, don t change the system as we golden oldies are not easy to re program
You people are the last stand as the local libraries go into the digital world and leaves us oldies behind. I like the feel of a book, where you can turn back a page or two to verify a fact in the story rather then swiping endlessly to on a screen and then having to go forwards to your original page...ugh

Alibris is an easy shopping experience, plus a LOT cheaper than Amazon!
The service is always reliable & as always, excellent! It always has been for years.
Very speedy and well set up. I thought one of the two books I chose indicated "free shipping," but I guess not -?
Thanks.
The picture shown was of the third Omnibus of the series, but that's not what I got.

I have used Alibris for many years and love the experience! They always have great products at superb prices!
Diverse and wide range of books, excellent pricing, and responsive sellers. I love the site!
Would have liked an option for Apple Pay. PayPal works, but Apple Pay is my favorite for multiple reasons.
It was great. I found the book I wanted at a reasonable price and I'm looking forward t getting it.
I ordered on sep 12 and 2 books arrived late on Oct 4, which is a pretty long time. One book was in the condition listed but the other was pretty beat up and pages were folded. It felt dirty and I wouldn't have chosen this copy if I had known.
This marketplace is great. Many choices to choose from. Thank you!
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.
