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.

Everything went well. Shipping was quick and item was delivered on time.
The ordering, prices, and communication were great. I had to spend a little time removing some stickers from a few of the books when they arrived. The condition of the books I ordered matched the condition on the website.
I was pleased to see that fine quality book was available. The cost proved to be an amazing good deal! Glad PAYPAL was a payment option.
Great book and the service was attentive and accurate. Thank you.
Cheap and great! I got exactly what I paid for and the description was accurate and trustworthy
This was a difficult book to find and Amazon didn't have it. Was able to order the Math book from Alibris and it arrived quickly. Thank you.
The ordering process was simple, the quality of the books I received was just what I expected, and the delivery time hit the benchmark they predicted.
You should just say no American Express cards will be accepted

I'd been hoping to find this title for a reasonable price since I lost my copy years ago. So happy to have found it here. Easy to order, arrived when and as expected. Great seller!
My sister had used it before and said that she was able to find what she needed. I was able to find the books that I was looking for easily.
The best; I looked for the textbooks I needed, picked the best options for me that were at the best price and that was that. Simple and easy.
So easy to order books in good condition and have them delivered
Was able to complete transaction today unlike last month 👍

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.
