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.
Always great, selection, price, descriptions of quality are accurate.
It's easy to find my choice, choose price & quality per my need & easy checkout.
Great system y'all have, Thanks alot. I've shopped with you for years. I recommend your site to anyone with whom I'm discussing books.

Always good. I do appreciate when I'm hunting 2 or more books, being able to see who has them all to save on shipping.
It's my Go-T0 place. Y'all have it all. I am sorry, however, the Amazon took you over.

I always enjoy shopping w/ Alibris. Great selection, I can compare / combine vendors. Great accuracy re: condition, price, shipping. Only occasionally have I made a return, & the issue was the item wasn't what I thought I wanted: my mistake. I 'm just sorry y'all got absorbed into Amazon! Thanks for all you do. Jo Ann
