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.
Quick and fairly simple. Found all of the books I was looking for.
Your library of older and out of print books hard to find elsewhere.

Quick, easy and at a reasonable price. My original purchase of this item was from a website that canceled my order without ever notifying me. I am more confident in alibris.com!

Alibris does live up to its motto; "Books you thought you'd never find."
I usually find what I am looking for, at a fair price. Most of the time, the quality of the book is good. In one case the quality was misrepresented, and that was a disappointment.
