I responded back to Lauren of customer service saying:
" Dear Lauren.
Great news, I received the book today.
It was not in 'very good' condition. It was in immaculate condition, like new!
Thank you. "
Thank you for your communication and great service.
I accidentally listed a former residence as the delivery address.
Alibris quickly responded, pulled the book out of the shipping pile and applied a revised shipping label.
They had the book I was searching for in great condition and a competitive price.

Media shipping seems high. Spent $25 on books and $45 for shipping. If I add 4.99 to book cost, it brings cost close to bookstore price.

Always a pleasure to shop with Alibris. Their "book fetch" search feature keeps looking on my behalf for weeks/months if I strike out the first time.

Somewhat obscure book at a good price
Date of experience: July 7, 2021
I don't like that you charge the same price for the dvd in the shipping. All shipping charges are normally different.
To see if I was going to save money but come to find out that the business doesn’t know how to charge for shipping.

YOUR "SUBSCRIBE FOR A DISCOUNT CODE" IS NOT FULLY TRUTHFULLY ADVERTISED. ACTUALLY YOU GET A CODE YOU CAN USE ONLY IF YOU BUY OVER $50. WHICH IS NOT WHAT THE AD TO SUBSCRIBE SAYS.
