One NEVER cancel a confirmed order as simple as that. No compensation for extra work and hazzle. Poor job guys! On top discount code option removed.
Easy to order i thought.,, proved to be wrong.

Prices were great and the site was pretty easy to use. I would like a wishlist option or save for later that was easily accessible though.
I was trying to find the best prices for my college textbooks and this site popped up.

I've bought a handfull of books from alibris over the last couple of years. Nothing bad to say about them. It's all been good.
Date of experience: January 26, 2021
Was good, a few glotches. But with persistence I got it to go through. Hopefully the book arrives quick and is in good condition.
They had the book I wanted in hard bound.

I never heard of Alibris before. Much less expensive than where I had these books saved on a wishlist, even with the other's free shipping.
Price. Found Googling some book titles.

It would be great if you offered free shipping like thriftbooks. I only used your site as they didn't have the book I was looking for.

The only concern is have is that there wasn't an option to rush my order. Class has already begun and i could use this book immediately.
I have purchased books in the past

I wish there was clearer info on the editions of each book, and what the covers look like, etc. Sometimes it is a bit confusiong.
I chose Alibris because I am tired of Amazon shipping me books that are bent on the corners. I am hoping to find an retailer that can get me books in perfect condition. So far my results with Alibris have been mixed, but I will continue to give Alibris a shot, since I do not want to order from Amazon.

OK. I missed putting in my 3 digit code and had to retype my credit card number which is annoying, but happens elsewhere too
They had the book I wanted, at the price I wanted, and i don't have to go to amazon, and it is at a Goodwill store!

I wanted 2 books... ordered 1 because you do not hve a way to ADD to the order!
PLUS where is my coupon?

I had made an inquiry this morning and recieved a quick response from the seller. Good start! So, I ordered it right away.
Because this seller on Alibris had the best price on the book I was looking for.

My Shopping experience was secure, fast, and this is a real blessing for me because I couldn't find this book on other websites.
I was referred to your bookstore by GoodRead

Website was easy to navigate and user friendly, I liked the option to choose book conditions
Thank you for providing affordable book options. I love to read but sometimes I can't find the books that I want in the library, or they will be too expensive from bookstores like Barnes and Noble. It's really nice to be able to find the books that I like second-hand and in good shape. Thank you :)

I have not received the bok yet to enjoy. However this shpping experience and ordering was excellent. The same as delicate cheese cake.
No special reason.

Good so far. The only suggestion I might make is allowing one to filter wishlist selections by bookseller to save on shipping costs.
Easy to find books and filter results, *massive* selection, and NOT AMAZON

Easy peasy! As usual! Love that I can find what I want a majority of the time at prices within my budget…. Thanks!

I bought a two volume set in a slipcase. It was sent in an envelope and was damaged in shipping. It should have been sent in a box.

I have been able to find my school textbooks and leisure reading books in great condition and for very reasonable prices through albiris.
Great prices and good quality.
Date of experience: August 12, 2022
Fast checkout and the cart optimizer feature (and coupons) are why I keep coming back to Alibris first for all my media needs!
Great coupons on top of already great prices!
Date of experience: May 10, 2021
Easy to find the book I wanted.
Clear listing of books by edition, clear rating and description of sellers.
Worked like a charm
I’ve been here before.
Sorry I had forgotten you…
