So far so good. I am slightly concerned that the description of my order no longer includes the specific UPC code: *******79959. I specifically want this version and hope that this is what the seller HPB Movies will provide (as was listed).
If I put a one star rating (I won't bore you with the reasons) and your response is: 'Oh you can't possibly mean that - would you like to think again?' then you are just inviting an even more negative response. Try not to be so irritating.
Tried repeatedly to enter last three digits on card, eventually successful - given my computer skills almost certainly my fault?
Have made satisfactory purchases previously
To hide my purchase from my husband (it's a present)
Cheap & reliable, good choice and reasonably speedy delivery
Relatively fast and usually reliable, always a good option
Quick easy to understand good choice of selected product and good postage rate
Previous customer good price
From previous experience
Good prices
Nightmare of having to enter password and eventually reset it. Then payment card details refused until I tried again. This took a lot longer than it should have done! On the plus side, you had the book I wanted.
You had the book I wanted
Tried to use a voucher (READ / MORE) when checking out, but website refused to accept since voucher was supposedly expired. However, voucher says valid until 12 July 2024 (today is 1 July 2024)!
Ease of use. The shipping costs from the USA are much lower than other sites
I have used them in the past
First time buyer... it's a learning curve :) ask me again with the next purchase.
Liked the look of your web page.
Nothing special: no problems. Alibris had the cheapest copy in good condition.
Not wanting amazon
To avoid amazon
Efficient and unproblematic to use. A good range of products. Postage is not exorbitant

Good service and good prices
Great value so far. Good value postage especially
A good place to find what i want
Usually good value
I always enjoy shopping at Alibris as I know how much they love books.
I trust them to supply hard to find books effortlessly. Thanks.
Transaction was easy and quick. Almost immediate email confirmation.
Had the book I wanted
Happy to have an alternative to Amazon! It's quite refreshing.
Because I could not get what I was looking for on Amazon.
Great choice, great international postage, a great deal for buyers and sellers - what's not love?
Square deal for everyone, great choice, fast delivery - easy action, baby!
Just the book I wanted, and the international postage rates are the best I've seen anywhere! I have been recommending Alibris to every bibliophile and collect I know.
The only way to buy books from America!
Bargain price copy of a book I've been looking for since the nineties. International shipping rates are the best I've found anywhere!
Incredible choice, great international shipping rates and a fair deal for buyers and sellers alike. I’ve managed to find so many long-sought titles through Alibris, and I’d recommend them to anyone.
Ethical business, a good deal for seller and buyer alike, and great prices for international shipping.
Ethical, cheap and easy
Easy to use site, great price, effortlessly sourced a copy of Anna Biller's 'Bluebeard's Castle'. Despite strong reviews and publicity, Verso doesn't seem to have been able to get this title onto the shelves of either indie or UK booksellers, and I've tried a lot of both.
Alibris offers good prices and a fair deal to buyers and sellers, and is not owned by Elon, Jeff, Rupert or any of the other third-rate Batman villains who seem to run the world now.
Rare and long sought title at a bargain. Price,
International stock, ease of use, not owned by a billionaire Bond villain!
Huge choice and the chance to support independent booksellers.
Search to purchase in a couple of clicks. The best web design is the one you barely notice, and this is super-slick!
Biggest choice, best prices, not a part of anyone elses’s Evil Empire!
Bigger range and better prices than your competitors
Rare and strange bargain, not offered on other book dealer sites. Website is professional and up to date, giving a seamless shopping experience.
My understanding is that, compared to its competitors, Alibris offers a wider range and a better deal to buyers and sellers. It certainly worked out that way today!
It was very easy to order online, there were no hidden catches!

Easy site to use (and at my age that's important 😉) my first time use 👍
Google search
It took four different attempts for my payment to go through over the course of two hours. Frustrating and left me concerned that I have exposed myself to theft of card details.
Best price/selection
All the books you could want at your fingertips and easy shopping
Looking for hardcovers which aren't available in the Netherlands
All good - SO many books to choose from - my shelves are groaning!
I prefer it to Amazon's Abebooks
Better than Abebooks as I've found out it is owned by Amazon!
Tossed a coin between you and Abebooks today.
Wanted to buy a book, of course!
My go to place for s/h books. And my password works here, which it doesn't at a certain well-know other on-line s/h bookstore!
Always fun to find books, and the search function is pretty good
My "go to" for second-hand books
Would prefer UK shipping to be with book price not as a surprise at the end! However generally good
Well organised layout for choosing books, generally a lot of stock available with good and honest details from booksellers
History of high satisfaction, thank you!
Great price and simple buying process and by buying used I feel that I am trying to save tree's
Used it before.
Easy navigation of the site and as always very good value.
I have used it before for great discounts.
Easy to do. I had to change the email as I lost password to one: but I have used this before.
Alibris has a copy not easy available elsewhere.
I've looked for certain items and found them in Alibris.

Simple and fast transaction and I found a rare book here which I could t find anywhere else
I have used it before
Shipping is very expensive and I also have experiences being told that a book are availeble, only to learn that it was not. This is not the way I like to do business.

Needed some books
I like to buy used books, but I think the price for shipping is hard to accept.

Needen more books
Hi.
Lately I hav etried to buy a few books that has all been listed in your system as availeble. However, after a confirmed order, you come back and say; sorry bit the book is no longer for sale. How can you be so clomsy with your actions? I am not impressed.
Jan
A last try...
I like the prices you offer, but shipping is beyond my expectations. So, I will have to consider buying somewhere else. Too bad.
Jan
The system is easy and straight forward, that's all I ask for!
