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.

Nice price from a seller on a book I have been wanting. The website and search are good. Not a whole lot of ways to be more in depth on the book, seller, or site itself. The staggered discounts, and tease of free shipping are frustrating.
Book was as good (maybe better) as expected. Seller processed, packaged, & shipped very fast. A+ Seller.

Looking forward to receiving the folio book. Thanks!
The web site is very easy to use and I always receive my purchases promptly.
Always have been satisfied with Alibris and their dealers
Alibis is always my go to book seller. Good coupons and a lot of sellers.
Great deal and you had the book I was looking for! What could be better.
Liked the discounts, but it was difficult to discover how to get the consolidated order for reduced shipping cost.
Excellent. The prices were great and the only problem was that one book I ordered was in Greek when I was expecting English. It is called the Power of Now.
Excellent. I enjoyed the experience.
Alibris is a place that I turn to for large purchases because of the discount codes that are frequently posted to the website.
I love this place because I can find just about everything.
I frequently use Alibris. I usually find better deals than anywhere else online.
I just placed my order and it was extremely easy to check out. Hopefully the book arrives timely and in "fine, like new" condition.
I enjoy your large inventory... would order more but shipping too high on several books should be a break on larger orders
You are very patient w/my indecisions
The web site has improved markedly over the years.
Do not understand how to apply the e-mailed savings coupons to my orders. Are they automatically applied?
We ordered this once and it was lost in the mail. I would prefer that it be shipped by a trackable carrier like ups or fed ex.
I'm a long time customer who has received Excellent service over and over again. Thank you!
I would like to see shipping cost of each item up front
Great value. Convenient. I've always found what I was seeking.
Shipping costs a bit too much, but books are in good shape and excellent prices!
Answer: Let's just say, they advertise falsely. They misrepresent what they are selling. Buyer beware.

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 info@alibris.com 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.
