First time buyer. So far so good. Found book I was searching for at a reasonable price. Easy to sign up and purchase.
I was on another site when a box popped up informing me of Alibis as an option for the book I was searching.

Nowhere else can one get old children's classics. And in tip-top condition, too! Thank Heaven for Alibris.com! Alibris also allows book buyers to "buy local"; to support Mom-and-Pop businesses instead of Amazon or WalMart.
Long-time customer. Ability to find old children's classics for my granddaughters.

Pricing can be tricky sometimes- especially the discount codes are a tricky tease often, great inventory, reliable enough to keep using by default
Easy with my account, faith in the goods being delivered or refunded

I love buying books while avoiding Amazon at all costs. Thank you for having such a wide selection of new & used books.
Found you as a seller on Ebay and I wanted to buy directly from your website.

Received email with coupon.
Attempted to use within less than 24 hrs. Already expired.
Wanted it to cover shipping costs which are high.
Easy way to find reasonably priced used books, especially ones that are hard to find elsewhere.

Was fairly simple but the cost of shipping and handling was actually higher than the cost of the 2 books I ordered.

Great website - fast loading with easy search and a very smooth check out process. Plus, I quickly found the book that I wanted.
Recommended by local bookstore as a source for an out-of-print book.

Was able to find a book that I could not get on Amazon or other resources are, so glad that alibris had it!
Do you have the book that I was looking for and at a very good price.
Date of experience: April 5, 2023
Good prices, but you still charge the wrong sales tax. Every other online vendor gets it right, you should be able to, too.

It would help to know how much I'd be paying for shipping before I have to put in all my credit card info...
I find you trustworthy when it comes to giving book details and your service is excellent.

When I want a hard copy of a specific book, Alibris is always my go-to site. They have yet to let me down.
Amazon price for hardback was ridiculous and so, as always, I came here instead.

Alibris is my go-to online bookstore. I usually find what I want at excellent prices and can support small bookshops in the process.
The books I am interested in are usually specialty titles or out-of-print editions that I couldn't easily find at the usual stores. I avoid giving more money and power to Jeff Bezos on principle, also.

Love alibris. Only suggestion: wish it was slightly more streamlined to add books from the same seller after adding one to my cart
Indy bookstores forever!

I love ALibris and always try to purchase books from you. It's a bit chastening that the postage now equals the book prices!
Because I wanted to purchase some books for a friend's birthday.

Easy site interface, found all the titles I wanted. Optimized shopping cart was cool to save a few bucks and get new titles!
Alibris had the titles I want and it's not affiliated with Amazon.
