Very impressed w/ orderly arrangement of products for sale, e.g., music, books, movie, etc. Makes sense! Also, the choice of sellers is easy to understand & navigate--I contacted one book seller Solr by email to find out if the used book they were selling was highly dusty (allergies) & they emailed back w/ details & evident concern. Alibris is now my "go-to" source for great prices, selection & quality of sale. Thanks for doing a great job!
Very Difficult to change shipping address. Had to quit internet browser and log back in again. Shipping choices limited. I know from past purchase that independent sellers can take their sweet time shipping items and often do. Why does alibris appear to charge at 1st class parcel rates and deliver at slower and cheaper media mail rate? Delivery window excessively wide.
Would appreciate the old feature for possibly merging into fewer sellers
Because Powell's was essentially out of Tarla Dalal titles

I found the book I wanted on the first try; the other suggestions were on target so I purchased an additional book.
The book was not available on Amazon

Quick and easy to find what I was looking for - great website design.
Found this site on a google for specific books. Anything to keep from buying on Amazon. Had been having trouble finding these books on my other non-Amazon site (world better books) and was excited to find you and the books I was looking for at such great used prices.
