Overseas Postage is FAR TOO MUCH - especially when ordering several books at $27 each! - - - Means I order 1 book instead of 6 or 10!
Occasionally you have 2nd hand books that are needed and that are at a fair price - other than overseas postage which makes them often unaffordable.

I've been buying books from Alibris for a very long time. I like that they're still independent.

Good service. Good selection. Try to avoid Better Books who put labels on the spine and ruin the books.

Used Books that I receive are as described. Good shipping
Even though amazon had this book for 15.00 and my free shipping capability, I wanted to support alibris. Today I was in a anti-amazon mood.

I love alibris with its fixed international shipping rates
Reasonable international shipping rates. When a second hand book is heavy alibris is generally the best option

Swift and efficient with very reasonable international shipping
Mainly because of the fixed international shipping rate as opposed to abebooks and biblio
