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 had been looking for this out of print book for about two years, and pretty much gave up hope of finding a copy. Imagine my delight when I received an email from Alibris saying they had a copy—and at a very reasonable price! Thank you, Alibris!
I always have had good experiences with Alibris and tell my friends
I love this site, Always find the book I want and it always in good condition.
I like my books used. They feel like old friends that way. Grateful to have a place to buy them.

The book I ordered was almost like new and arrived in a timely manner. Good price.
Selection is amazing and the sellers collective was always been very professional.
I cannot use my debit card, I have to try a lot of times, Then I did it. So sad.
All is good so far, first order, I will let you know how the order goes, I am curious as to the condition of the book that I ordered as I am trying to complete a collection.
Great book, in perfect condition, fast shipping, and a great price. Could not ask for more than that.
Very satisfied with my order, found the book at a greatly discounted price. Received quickly and arrived in new condition. Will use this service again.
Good excellent CD is awesome exactly what my husband was looking for and it was a reasonable price.
Alibris is much better than Amazon. The shipping does cost a lot, but the low price of the books is fantastic. I am a fan.
I was looking for a book series for a friend as a gift about fighter piolets in the early 90's, but Amazon was wanting outrageous prices. I started looking elsewhere for the trilogy and found it on Alibris. I saved a lot of money by looking elsewhere. The books were used, but in terrific condition. No regrets!
The search function works well and I was able to find many Latin books I could not find elsewhere at good prices.
Shopping alibris was enjoyable; I found several books I wanted, all for very good prices.
The link sent me to the page for exactly what I was looking for.
Excellent searching and adding to cart. Many choices under my author.
Best source for a hard-to- locate used book
It is an easy-to-use website, and most stores had detailed descriptions of books that helped decide who/where to choose from. Overall reasonable prices for books compared to other stores.
If you do some digging, mixing and matching with the shipping you can find ways to save even more money than you would with the "cheapest" options
Great experience. Just had a little difficult time finding my tracking number and if the Order was being shipped via UPS, or USPS!
Alibris offered the book I had been searching for for my grandchild. Priced nicely in very good condition is what was stated. This was a "touch and feel" book. The book was mostly in very good condition, but the rubber duck to touch for the bath time in the book, had a big hole and most of the rubber gone. I do not understand how this is considered very good condition. I was trying to replace a book I already had with something better.
