Absolutely pro seller. Shipped immediately, arrived quickly, condition exactly as described/expected (practically flawless and brand new)!
Some great sellers, and thus inventory, seem exclusive and loyal to Alibris - I come here for things I can't normally find.

You have the book I want at a fair price. Now I hope the book is in good condition when it arrives and not overly dirty or torn.
I happened upon the site by chance.

I really like using Alibris. My only reason I don't use for all my book purchases is that it takes in general too long to get the book.
Today i tried to use Barnes and Noble this book because their delivery is very fast, but this book only came in soft cover.

The web interface for my phone is clear, easy to use, and offers the payment options at top of page. This is a first for me. Thank you.
Excellent layout. Excellent source for unique books.

Your prices are much lower than Abebooks aka Amazon. I hate Amazon and avoid it at al costs so I am delighted you have the book i want.
I support all non-Amazon businesses.

Alibris is a great site. I come here when I can't find what I'm looking for anywhere else. The site is easy to navigate, and prices are good.
Shopped before and highly satisfied.

Love that everything I wanted I found and at a great price... Now just waiting to see if what I bought lives up to the quality as advertised...
I'm a reading addiction and it's a costly addiction...

Yet to receive my book or deal with shipping, but as far as purchasing goes, it was incredibly easy to find what I was looking for. Thank you
Alibris had the book I was looking for.

Fantastic! To be able to see where the books you have wanted for so long may be around the globe and in what condition is an incredible service.
Alibris had the titles in the editions & by the publishers I have been looking for. At very reasonable prices as well. Also - I prefer not to support Amazon.com for book purchases.

It went smooth and I'm glad I could choose the quality and price so easily. Now I'll wait and see if the rating was correct for each book.
I've ordered before and appreciate the coupon for $ help.

Also want Elizabeth Jones Black- "Painting Greeting Cards" but couldn't after I was in the transaction.
You had what I wanted.

Would like to know what a star rating means rather than having to click on the specific website... 2 stars = may have notes on the pages, etc.

Overall I really love this site! Sometimes the picture sellers use don't match the cover I actually receive, even if it claims to be the right edition or has the right ISBN number. So I wish there was a way to make the picture feature more accurate. But otherwise I am very satisfied with this site!
Generally has the lowest prices out there.

Was fine until 2 items were removed from my shopping cart without me deleting them. Lucky I had made notes of what books I was ordering from where.
Searching for lowest cost of beers in decent condition.

So far, the shopping has been easy and quick, prices are very cheap, so I am hoping I dont get a pile of shredded paper in a box.
I found it searching for the particular book I was looking for, so I figured I would give it a try, it had the best prices comparative to the others on the web... So, I hope it all works out!

Alibris is great! I can almost always find what I'm looking for, they give lots of details, and you can count on what you read about the books.
It's always my go to place for used books online.

So far my ordering experience is good, but it also depends when am I going to get my package. It says 3 to 10 business days, thanks you
Becasue of the price, cheaper than any one else in the market

I wish I could filter or at least sort by Seller in order to find multiple titles from the same seller to consolidate and save on shipping costs.

Excellent site - so happy I found this!

I got a code for $5 off coupon for giving you my phone number for text messages and it would not let me put it in. Highly disappointed

I found a lot of great titles at great prices. It was hard to keep track of gathering free shipping books and others to use the coupon code.
Googled a book title to purchase
