So far your ordering system seems understandable and simple enough for even a computer numbskull such as myself. Thank you.

I think(hope) one of these books has an introduction by Adam Gopnik. It would have been helpful if that was mentioned.
Had what I wanted.

Easier now to find a book whose title I couldn't remember. My experience today was great. Thanks very much.
I knew you would have this book.

Disappointed in the many price increases. Also, Alibris should reevaluate members' shipping charges to insure they reflect actual costs.
Great place to browse for books

7 OF MY 8 BOOKS WERE ORDERED FROM THE SAME SEKKER, HIPPO. THEY APPARENTLY GIVE NO DISCOUNT FOR MULTIPLE ORDERS SHIPPED TOGETHER. SHIPPING COSTS FAR TOO HIGH!

Quick, eary checkout. Would like to see adjustment for shipping when ordering multiple items from the same vendor.
Price, opportunity to reuse books.

Moving away from amazon

I had to reselect my books 4 times. And in doing so losing out on the most cost-efficient price pre book.
Because I receive more books for my bucks.

After spending many hours searching other sites today & ending up frustrated & no results, it was such a relief & pleasure to come across Alibris. Very highly recommended

What a relief. Much easier & more straightforward than other frustrating and confusing online websites. And this site gave me what I wanted as well. Thanks from the U.K.
After spending oodles of hours searching with no results, this site provided the certain book I was seeking. Very clear and efficient buying experience. Wish the others were half as good. Will be coming back to this site.

Overall positive experience, quick and inexpensive, however the User Interface is a little lackluster, especially on mobile.
Y’all were cheap

Using the express reccomended checkout actually added 11.00 and it replaced a book with something I had no desire for...

Alibris is alway easy to maneuver through, and I love that their books are searchable, along with jillions of others, through Addall.

Cheaper prices for expensive books.

I think this is the first time I've been to your website, but I am pleased with the selection of books I was interested in, and the prices.
I was looking for a particular book and Amazon had it in hardback for $123+. Ridiculous. I purchased a new paperback edition of it here for only $11.50! Such a deal!
