Alibris Reviews Summary
Alibris enjoys a generally positive reputation among customers, particularly for its wide selection of used books at competitive prices and reliable shipping. Many customers appreciate the timely delivery and the ability to track orders, contributing to overall satisfaction. However, concerns arise regarding the variability in book conditions, with some items not meeting expectations, and delays in shipping for urgent needs. Additionally, the separate shipping fees for each book can deter purchases. Despite these issues, the platform remains a favored choice for many due to its extensive inventory and user-friendly website.

I ordered from Alibris b/c I want to support independent smaller book stores. Unfortunately, the book took over two weeks to arrive, which was particularly surprising because the book was coming from Washington State, and I live in Bend, Oregon, which is a small city, so the delayed arrival was a surprise, and unfortunate because the book is for a class. This unfortunately makes me feel like I need to order from Amazon, from here out.
I ended up paying almost double the initial price. Did not see the final price until after I paid.
The package arrived at the given time, the price was good and the book is in expected condition.
Thank you for the good service.
This order was delivered in a timely manner and the copy was in the condition that was described by the seller.
Easy to navigate this site, select a product, and check out smoothly. Delivery was fast and efficient.
I have not been disappointed yet, so far so good. Easy to find what I needed today. Delivery was slower than I expected, but my need was not urgent so really no problem.
So easy to find what I wanted. So quick for checkout. Nice! I will be back
Very easy website to navigate, coupons and other publications suggested were appreciated.
Glad to purchase from a business that is not Amazon. I'm a graduate professor who purchases all kinds of book regularly. My students are also led to this site to support authors contribution to society.
I found many copies of the book I wanted from $4.00 to $125.00. I selected a very fine/like new for $15.00 and feel that I got good value.
The postal service seems to be less than ideal, but Alibris was fine.
I love Alibris. I can always find what I want at a price I appreciate.
