How can you lure! A good customer with a 15.00 coupon that "Expires" TONIGHT. And then when I check out... you don't have any where to redeem or claim! This 15.00 $ coupon. This is what the issue is. Don't dangle a carrot if there's no carrot to be had.
To look at health books & try to use my 15.00$ coupon so it wouldn't go to waste!

I wanted to order a couple of out of print Bohemian books. Found them!

Typed in the book titles and bingo! I found both books that I wanted to order.
Alibris generally has all the hard to find books! Like today, I was able to find The Dulce Wars by Branton, B and Children of the Matrix by David Icke.

I generally can find exactly what I am looking for. (Favorite scripture teachers like Kenneth E. Hagin and vintage craft books like macrame.)
I needed a replacement book.

So far, getting the order in has been stress-free, and without any problems. I am very impressed thus far.

I am almost always pleased with items I order. My only disappointment is occasional vendors who ship very slowly.
Best north American source of quality out-of-print books, in my experience.
Date of experience: May 22, 2023
Found what I wanted, fast and easy... now just hoping the books are in the shape promised by vendors
Couldn't find it from other independent book sellers
Date of experience: February 20, 2021
I had a shipping question and the staff replied to my email quickly and kindly with lots of information.
I find Amazon seems easier but I really want to support other businesses. I think it is important to our society to make conscious choices and not always easy choices.

Everything I looked for was here and at such great prices! Love shopping Alibris for al my book needs!

This is the only site that charges shipping. Just raise the prices so you can. It seems very misleading.
I needed a textbook.
Date of experience: July 18, 2021
Quick, Easy, and Simple. Alibris is a wonderful place to buy gently used books for students and readers alike.
It’s the best place to find cheap text books that are the correct edition and in good condition.

Easy to navigate - much faster and easier than Ebay. I will definitely use again when I need more textbooks.
They had the books I need.
Date of experience: August 21, 2021
My only complaint is that a password is required. Who can remember passwords for everything? Otherwise, it's all good.
Price - only had a small amount left on my gift card.
