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.

Ordering was easy. Let's see how quickly the books arrive.
Have used it before and felt I got what I ordered.

The shipping charge for the book I ordered today is $3.99. However, when I was considering placing the order, the "estimated shipping charge" was $14.99! It wasn't until I exchanged three emails with your excellent client service representative, Sumo Murmu, that I came to understand that the estimated shipping charge was not the actual shipping charge. There is a big difference between 14.99 and 3.99. Something's wrong with your system; the estimated charge should more accurately reflect the actual one.
Because I am sick of using Amazon.

It had something I was looking for

I love getting books from Alibris! I've always had a positive experience!
I can get the same book that I’m wanting for my kids for an even more reasonable price than what I can get at the store.

Want to try a new book company and the price was right.
