Easy and the price is right….although I did hope to save shipping costs by ordering both books from the same dealer/seller.
Because I was happy the first time I used Alibris!
Date of experience: May 3, 2023
Your order process was a little confusing, but I am 82 years old, so not a computer whiz. Otherwise rated as good.
I have purchased from you for several years and service has always been good

Would like to see a ship to address as this is a gift, which means I have to ship it again
Date of experience: December 30, 2020
Alibris had a visible place in search listings, and a decent price. So long as shipping isn't glacial, then I'll be happy
Price was acceptable

Alibris is my first choice when it comes to out of print books, or older books. Such a reliable source. Thank you.
Because the book I was looking for was published in the 1940's

Looking for a high-demand book on Ukraine
Date of experience: April 9, 2022
Found what I was looking for, a DVD long out of print and not easy to come by, especially new. Easy transaction.
Web search for the item I was searching for. Have bought books via Alibris in the past.
Date of experience: March 28, 2021
I really like the bargain buying option. It saved me over $20.00 because I was able to take advantage of free shipping.
Best prices and selection.
Date of experience: October 17, 2021
I had to make a return, which was easy enough, and now am re-ordering the same book as well as another one.
I can always find the out-of-the-ordinary books I need!
Date of experience: March 31, 2022
Easy peasy! And a little Irish luck with a coupon!
Alibris had the book I needed -- which is usually the case when it comes to something my local indie can't get!
Date of experience: March 17, 2022
My local indie bookstore put me on to alibris some years ago -- and it's been a never-fail option ever since!
I was looking for Irish and British authors, one book I've been looking for quite awhile, Walking Away -- the other two were recommended by a poet friend, So it was a hat trick on alibris!

I dont like the idea of having to save my credit card on your site without being able to place an order.
Date of experience: July 21, 2021
It was all good until I had to enter my new shipping address three times. It should be fine next time. Thanks.

Very easy, love that each book has it's own personalized description--But I can view multiple options at once that best suits me.
I am trying to branch off from websites like ebay and amazon that specialize in books and that. I have a few bad experiences with both websites.
