You found the product I was shopping for, led me right to it and I was able to purchase it and a similar product within 5 minutes. I can't ask for anything better than that. Thank you very much.
Alibris advertised the item I was searching for at the lowest price on the internet. It's a no-brainer.

Today I tried to use a different payment option and Alibris would not accept it. So that was annoying. But I was able to use my existing payment information.

Was a bit confused after reaching the $ amount for free shipping, the shipping cost continued to be included. Cleared at the last, but was concerning in the process.

Free shipping didn't show up until I made the purchase. That was confusing because I thought I would have to pay shipping. Almost cancelled the order.

Good website, mostly good book descriptions, poor ability to look at cart - got error messages, kept saying you already used that coupon when just trying to look at cart.

I didn't want you to store my credit card number. I always try to turn this off, so you must have defaulted to keeping it. No one can keep online data safe, so I try to limit my risk.
Low prices, you're not Amazon.

Easy finding titles, easy viewing of cart, easy checkout, and nice prices. I loved the savings on the alternate checkout option with lower shipping. Thank you
I have used Alibris in the past and I was having a hard time finding good prices on some light novels and mangas that I wanted to buy.
Date of experience: July 1, 2023
Site is well laid out, shipping was clearly explained and defined, condition of used book was well described, book that was hard to find was in stock. Much appreciated.
You guys had a book in stock that was out of stock on many sites and you also had it at a better price at its condition and for more reasonable shipping than other sites that also had it in stock, including Amazon.

I could find two books with no problem. The prices are so much better than Amazon. I bought 2 books for the price of one. What brought up the price was the shipping. No big deal on the shipping.

Best price for what I wanted after searching two other sites.

I have been pleased with the books I have ordered. As described. Shipping takes longer than I think it should since I am in USA and ordering in country.
Best place to find old treasures.

I would like to figure out how to change my email address in my account. I think I messed up trying once, and now when I try, it tells me that my actual email address is already in use.
I love antique geography textbooks and this is the easiest place to find them. I always stumble on something completely different while I'm shopping.

Disappointed that lightweight items like DVDs, intentionally purchased from the same vendor, merit repeat charging of the same shipping fee... seven items ordered, seven fees charged.
