Very impressed w/ orderly arrangement of products for sale, e.g., music, books, movie, etc. Makes sense! Also, the choice of sellers is easy to understand & navigate--I contacted one book seller Solr by email to find out if the used book they were selling was highly dusty (allergies) & they emailed back w/ details & evident concern. Alibris is now my "go-to" source for great prices, selection & quality of sale. Thanks for doing a great job!
Very Difficult to change shipping address. Had to quit internet browser and log back in again. Shipping choices limited. I know from past purchase that independent sellers can take their sweet time shipping items and often do. Why does alibris appear to charge at 1st class parcel rates and deliver at slower and cheaper media mail rate? Delivery window excessively wide.
I had given email before but didn't receive $5 coupon. This is 1st time ordering with you.
Thought I would try. You had sent email about your company.

Great selection. I like the coupons. Quick delivery and well prepared. Good website presentation.
I want to support smaller book sellers. Ones that pay taxes and don't use their billions to go to space for self-aggrandizement. Booksellers who truly care about their customers.
