With Alibris for years, only one real bad experience. Paid for a book from England that never arrived.

I was a happy customer of Alibris until a few months ago. When I paid for a copy of Huxley's: Island in Hardcover to come from World of Books, Goring on Sea, UK. My initial follow up less than 90 days, asked to be patient. Second follow up, over 90 days, told so sad, too bad You are SOoL. NOT Happy Now, telling friends. Buy nothing from WOB.

Because I am not dealing with WOB.
