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.

Overpriced... I don't like Amazon, but I need an alternative that doesn't cost more.
You need to give me more time to shop before you delete everything I have in my cart.
I thought I would get a shipping discount if I bought multiple books from the same seller, but so far that has never happened. It seems a shame to order 5 books from the same seller, knowing media mail is so inexpensive, and then still pay $3.99 shipping for each volume I order.
The ordering process was easy and fast providing many options to buy. We'll see how the shipping works out.
I found a lot books that I think will be very useful at great prices.
You are shipping this book from the UK to me in the same UK. I am disappointed that you charged me an international rate.
Great easy to find book and order. Hope it arrives in time for great-grandson's birthday
Had to repeat finding books and adding to cart when I couldn't find old password. Honestly, the site should remember what is in the cart
Excellent site, only concern is a possible delay. Last year shipping had a delay and books arrived one month after classes starded.
Really easy to find what I was looking for, good pricing too!
Thanks for clarity and ease of use, along with strong listings.
It has been several years since I last made a purchase on Alibris, and I have to say this most recent purchase experience went much smoother and faster than I expected.
A little uneasy that it may show up as a paperback. Although it didn't say that it was a paperback, it only said hardcover once in the process, and these days, you can never be too sure. 4 stars due to lack of feeling secure in the purchase.
I have been away for some time but I'm back because Alibris is still the best new and used book store I have shopped at.
I love how easy it is to find out-of-print books at reasonable prices.
Nice they offered more similar used books at good price.
I like that you gave me an option for a cheaper purchase.
Easy to place order. Hopefully shipping is fast too
Great, I just hope my package will arrive on time.
