I lent my copy to someone and didn't get it back, so I bought another one. We watch it close to Christmas every year.
Alibis has the best product for the price on everything I’ve ever ordered from them.

I have made several purchases from Alibris. Good selection / reasonable price / pretty quick delivery.
Carries books I'm interested in.
Date of experience: April 24, 2024
It was very easy to find the book, set up my account, and make the purchase.
There was a glitch on my usual (non-Amazon) book site, so did a search for reviews of online book sellers. Alibris showed up on a couple of the best of lists and I remembered the name from the way back, pre-Internet shopping days, that we bought from you from the "catalog" that was mailed out.

I do not like saving card details (and that was the only option offered). Otherwise, the experience was fine
The price estimate on Bookfinder corresponded to what I was asked to pay on Alibris (with the alternative seller I tired at first, it was not so)

I just placed an order for another book too. I know you'll be efficient & dependable
So that's why I keep ordering from your company. You're GREAT!

Wanted all 4 from same

This is the third order of these books, first order was returned because of wrong address, second order arrived as promised.
You had the books I wanted
This was intended to be between Alibris and me, however, the only way to send this to you was to check the box below...so it is checked along with these comments...also I lowered the recommendation score from 9 to 2 because of the requirement to post these comments...

This is a hard to find and special book. I appreciated the detailed descriptions of the items.

Your website started rejecting my credit card for no reason. No matter how many times I re-entered the card, it gave me error messages.

I continue to get an error that my credit card and billing addresses didn't match - this isn't the case but your system wouldn't process my purchase. I finally just entered another card. Very frustrating.
Good prcies and choices

I had originally ordered 5 more items but the shipping costs were too high. It must be due to multiple sellers shipping costs.

I love to be able to get books here that I can't find anywhere else. It is kinda ironic that the shipping is so much more than the books.
I thought I could probably find a book I have been searching for and haven’t been able to find elsewhere.
I have recommended Alibris to many friends and family —and patrons, when I was a librarian.
