I love Alibris! They always have something when I can't find it and for a great price too!
I chose Alibris because I was looking for books that were out of stock on every site I looked on. Sure enough, Alibris had them, and for under rtp!

I feel that if I buy my books from the same store, shipping should not be so costly.

Doing it on my phone vs Computer was more difficult. Some of the shipping was a bit high.
Because I got a lot of my books from college here in the past.

I would have liked to have selected so many more books but the shipping makes it prohibitive. :(

I enjoyed the Alibris website. It was easy to search, select and add to cart and/or wish list.
Name recognition
Date of experience: November 9, 2022
There is no indication of when my order will be received. Amazon always shows when you'll get it.

Easy to find the books I wanted, simple to order, and a good price. No problems at all.
Alibris isn't Amazon!
Date of experience: May 17, 2023
I just think $3.99 shipping for each book is a bit excessive when ordering a number of paperbacks.
Date of experience: February 26, 2021
No problems, easy and clear, though I would prefer a longer synopsis of the books I am considering.
Inexpensive copies available.
