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.

I love getting great deals & supporting bookseller co-ops & small to medium sized businesses! Thank you for this excellent market for keeping real books circulating.
Books shipped and received in a reasonable time. Condition was probably better than listed. All good, no problems
A straight-forward process is always welcomed by us seniors.
Very difficult web site. I wanted expedited shipping, Didn't get that. I was going to order more shipping too expensive & slow. Difficulty checking out as a guest. I have avoided ordering for a long time cause signing in was a pain
It said my book qualified for free shipping, but you charged me for shipping, Why?
Always easy to use and descriptions of books are accurate and the summaries of books are very helpful
I have used Alibris for many years. Always good quality books at fair prices.
I'll tell you more after I get my book. I compared your prices to my old stand bys after searching on Google
Searched for a book and found it here. I contacted the e-mail address and got a confirmation that the book store in FL had the book in stock (even sent a photo). Great experience.
Never have I been disappointed with any purchase from Alibris!
Your book sellers are wonderful!
Most of the books I've bought are almost as good as brand new and if not they're priced accordingly.
Very happy buying books like this!
It is easy to find used books at a great price. I love to shop this website and am surprised to find great books here all the time. I also appreciate finding hard-tp-find books no longer being printed.
Took a long time. Cost too much. Textbook prices are literally stupid everywhere.
It was an excellent price for Stanton Lanier. The best I have found used. Thank you for this reasonable cost.
You folks are fine to work with right up until this had to be 50 characters of stroking - Right up until I had to agree to have my name published I was OK with this - I gave you 5 stars on everything but, apparently that's not enough.
I had a positive experience ordering my book, which was delivered incredibly fast and for the best price I could find online.
Simple process for choosing and checking out. I appreciate the process.
It had been a long time since buying a book on alibris. I had to change address, etc. Hopefully I typed everything in correctly.
Check with your professor if you have trouble with looking for your textbooks.
