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.
Easy to look books up and find a variety of options available.
Knew they'd have the books I wanted.

Finding the book I wanted and ordering it was very easy.
My local book cooperative gave me the site name when they could not find it because it is out of print. I am glad to have an alternative source when I need it.

My experience was just fine. I searched Frank T. Lyman for books on how to teach thinking.
They had books that I wanted.

Important information made clear and an easy process
Given most packages delivered by USPS are done so carelessly and most often are stolen, I would have liked more clear information on who and when it was being delivered. As it was I was locking at home checking the front door every hour from 9-6 for the package.
