I am new at this. So far so good. The site was easy to use. Thank you.
This is where I found the book that was recommended to me.
Date of experience: July 3, 2024
The book was listed as "good" condition but was like new and just a third of the price of a new one. It took a week to arrive but that was okay. All-in-all a good experience.
Price and availability.

I got the book I ordered in a week, in perfect condition. I had ordered a rare academic title and they got it to me in a snap.
Best selection at a reasonable price

I'm trying to support smaller businesses and definitely NOT Amazon and it's nice that this place puts a lot of emphasis on books.

ONE POSITIVE THING WHICH HAS HAPPENED IS THAT ALIBRIS HAS IMPROVED THE SHIPPING. THE PRODUCT IS DELIVERED WITHIN THE STIPULATED TIME. PLEASE MAINTAIN.
OK
ECONOMICAL PRICING, SHIPPING AND THE DISCOUNT VOUCHERS

I just found the site hard to navigate on: after "shopping" & finding my item I could not find my cart. It took an irritable few minutes to locate it.
Because I receive e-mails daily from Alibris & when I was having difficulty locating an old book I thought to try Alibris.

No aggravation in finding what I want or moving around on site. Very 'User friendly'.
You send me emails all the time.

Waiting for my item to be received before I leave feedback. No other comment is necessary until I receive my purchase.
Reasonable price

Love buying books through Alibeis. The only change I would suggest is for the optimized cart. I'm not sure it accounts for same store shipping costs, which would save money.
The prices of the books, and the availability of the books I want.
Date of experience: August 14, 2021
Maybe 10% off shipping next time as a coupon. Also, I don't understand the significance the question about follow-up? Aren't the things you mention 'standard operating procedure' for a purchase?
Repeat Customer.

I've ordered before and I love the books and they are in great condition and price is good. Shipping a bit higher than expected but I will continue to usysite

I'm new to this site but plan on using it in the very near future to purchase lots of books thank you
It had exactly what I was looking for
Date of experience: July 1, 2023
Could not place one order with multipple shipping addresses so was not able to use coupon, must make separate orders. Otherwise enjoy ability to find good books at good prices.
Replied to email coupon offer.

Your website drives me crazy. I ENTERED VERY CORRECT INFORMATION FOR MY DEBIT CARD, AND IT REJECTED IT BECAUSE THE INFORMATION WAS INCORRECT. CRAZY. STUPID. I USE THIS DEBIT CARD ALL THE TIME. YOU ALMOST LOST ME AS A CUSTOMER, EXCEPT THAT I NEEDED THAT BOOK VERY BADLY. NOT WORTH BEING DRIVEN CRAZY.
IT'S THE ONLY ONE AMAZON OFFERED ME.

VERY FRUSTRATING. I gave the correct credit card information, THEN, you asked for it again! Treating me like a little child. BEN CABRAL

It was confusing with the discount, it really wasn't as stated... I may have gotten a cheaper book but then the shipping was like 7 bucks...
Blessings to you, Lisa
It just came up
