Alibris is a great resource for new and used books and the website is super user-friendly. Great deals, easy to shop.
You had the best price on a hardcover book (new) I've been wanting.

Alibris makes it super easy to find books, has a useful rating system with a range of options and recommended copies, and gives clear instructions on use of the site. I recommend the site to my students and would recommend to anyone looking for books.
I needed books I couldn't find anywhere else.

Everything is good, except I think shipping should be reduced when multiple items come from same shipper

Great deal on books, but sad that the shipping is too high. I would rather wait much longer on receiving my books for a much lower shipping charge.

It is good, sometimes I wish Alibris had an option to see the content of the book just to be sure I am getting the right item.
Thanks

Alibris always delivers. I usually purchased used books, and they're almost always readily available.
Track record.

Paypal doesn't work, also I'd prefer to get shipping information before entering payment information.

I would have given 5 star but when the free shipping disappeared until after I had given my credit card info I almost did not make the order
Good prices and past experience

Easy shopping, wide variety of selections from back lists, accurate descriptions of stock, reliable.

I'd like to see if I can buy from one store to save on shipping. Paying more for shipping than the product is not efficient to the pocketbook.
I thought it was the store and it would be a low shipping price.

I had a little difficulty knowing if what I
Typed in had been received as I entered it.
Does your company have a contact phone number?
Thank you.

Would not let me check out as a guest. Did not accept my login. Finally had my husband do the purchase because I had a seizure. No fun.

It's kind of hard to find the book editions I'm looking for. Abebooks is much easier, with being able to enter specs at the top of the page.:)
Couldn't find what I was looking for elsewhere.

So far, so good. This is my first order and I will have to see how long it takes to arrive and if the condition is as described.
My husband suggested this company.
