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.

Good golf books are always exciting and tonight is no exception. Thank you
These obscure books were very easily found and purchased. They have local interest to me.
Excellent transaction. Seller's description is spot on. You are given all the details you need to make your purchase
Love Alibris because you have books I want to share with others that I have read in the past and your website is so easy to use.
Apparently I didn't order enough books. I've finished 2 of the 3 I ordered for myself.
Love the site. Always find what i am looking for. I keep it handy anytime I hear of, remember, am curious about a book.
Authors are readily available with their latest books as well as their older books.
So far fine. Will wait to see if product matches description.
Very quick and easy both to locate the book and to order it. Thank you
Ordering is easy-peasy and prices are great.
The website has a huge selection at various prices.
The Seller described the duct jacket and book as Very Good condition. I do not consider foxing on both the dust jacket and book as Very Good condition. However, for the price, it was not worth the hassle of returning. Just left a poor review of the Seller.
Easy way to shop for hard to find books. I have used you before...all good
Not happy about the false listing and book availability. Alas!
Alibris carries hard to find books and movies that aren't available for streaming even and the prices are great! I've used Alibris for several years and am always happy with my purchases.
I ordered several books from Alibris. They all arrived in a timely manner and in great shape.
Easy checkout and account creation. Effective search and filtering options.
This company is great to buy from! I ordered several classic movies and they were a great price and shipped quickly!
Easy company to order from, they have a wide selection and they also ship quickly
I'd like to see shipping costs earlier in the shopping process.
Thanks for the great service. I love that I can find books with you after fruitless searches with other companies.
I'm usually looking for out of print books, and you have a wonderful selection.
I also hate Amazon and always prefer companies that are passionate about their product. Thank you!
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 Valerie, If you have had a problem with your Visa or PayPal transactions on our site, please let us know the details at [email protected] so that we can investigate for you. Thank you for your question. 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. If you have already placed an order, please contact us at [email protected] with your order details and we can investigate for you. Thank you for writing. Michael B. Alibris Customer Service
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.
