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.

Love your business! I'm a book-aholic and its great to find the titles at reasonable prices. Thank you!
Hard to find dvd, been searching and finally found your site and good price
Clear & Clean website experience, no pinch-points or frustrations.
Shopping online was very easy, prices are lower compared to other websites.
Excellent book service. Arrived just in time and in great condition. Great service as always!
This is my first time using this site. I have no prior experience, and therefore I have nothing helpful to contribute.
Available wanted item. Price little high but reasonable. Wrong tracking number initially but the agent fixed it and send the right one. Book is brand new in wrapping. Overall good transaction.
In choosing a book of any sort from you, i always look for the latest edition and your evaluation of its condition and the reliability of the seller. You have never let me down with this information. The delivery times have always been reasonable even when the books are sent from European sellers. Why should I not be pleased?
Found what I needed easily at reasonable prices with reasonable quality
Albris is amazing and able to stock books and DVD's other companies cannot, and a refreshing change in this world today.
The book I received was not the one I wanted. I completed a search and when I clicked on all options, I did not realize it would give me different volumes and versions of the book. I did not realize the mistake until after I submitted the order and it was too late to cancel. Other than that the book I received came in good condition as described and delivery was quick, but getting the wrong book is pretty disappointing.
Received items in about two weeks, in great condition. Will definitely shop here again in the future.
Very clear and easy-to-navigate site, with no ambiguity. Excellent prices. Thank you!
Quick and easy; hopefully each seller will be the same๐๐๐ป๐๐ฟ

Great shopping experience, and easy to navigate website. Also, the best collection to choose from.
I wish there is more Arabic language books, as it is my mother language.

Almost everything can be found on alibris, and I am happy to buy used books - recycle and reuse!
I love Alibris - I love the sustainability of buying used, and there is so much to find and so fun to find things all over the country.
Answer: Let's just say, they advertise falsely. They misrepresent what they are selling. Buyer beware.
Answer: Hi Dennis, That depends on where the seller is located and where your deliver address is as well. Generally, shipments within the States are delivered within a week or so, though holiday shipping might slow down a bit. If you send us the details with your order number in an email to [email protected] we can look into the specifics for you. Thank you for writing. Michael B. Alibris Customer Service

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.
