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.
Better searchability abd availability on the book conditions.

Biblio seller claimed they shipping item, then several days latter told me it was not avaiable. They have a robot telling customers deal is done, when it is not, and when seller tries to match robot's "sold and down message", their system fails. Biblio is giving a false message to buyer, which is wrong.

Easy enough. But shipping is far too expensive. See thrift books.

A little wordy for my taste, reference to UK shipping, complicates the process.
I have ordered before.

Very complicated menus for checking out, also, lost cart, item was not available, then searched to find original cart, item was found, lots of effort.
Previous purchase, used item.
