You have such good deals and such good items and books. I don't understand the difference in shipping some of them charge $4.49 but some charge 11 or 18 or $30 it's crazy
I always choose laborers because I’ve always gotten such good service and you have most books available and I like your your booksellers

When I tried to checkout as a registered user, the website told me I had to sign in as a guest. When I signed in as a guest, the website said that the book in my cart was no longer available.

The shipping aspect was a shock to figure out. I had to go back to my cart, empty it, and try to figure out which items had free shipping and which didn't. It was far from ideal.
Good pricing and I was able to put together a large enough order for free shipping.

Yesterday when placing this order I was offered some lower shipping costs but these lower costs were not offered to me when I finally placed my order. Why?
Was able to find a item that was not offered on Amazon.

I forgot to sign in and had 4 items in my shopping cart. I had to reset my password and when I went back all the items were gone. Not really your fault but I was disappointed.
Love not buying from Amazon but shipping is quite a bit higher

Once I find one book from a seller (like Owl books), I want to order the rest of the books from there to save on shipping. It is not easy to filter to find the seller.
Buying 2nd hand helps the environment and tends to be cheaper.

Wonderful selections of classic rock at very reasonable prices. Although your shipping is a bit pricey I have made puxchases ehere the shipping equaled the cost of the item
Reasonable prices but Grrrr on the shipping costs

Love the selection. Having to enter my email address over and over again is redundant!
Date of experience: March 25, 2024
The process was convenient - I did not need a new book - I was looking for a good used book - time will tell if this was a good choice or not. Hope so
I was able to find a fair price for a used book.

I lost my first deck but this deck looks like a perfect replacement.
I use the word lost but I feel it was stolen. Who ever has it I hope they use it properly.
I Like Alibri!

I have a large choice!

Quick and easy to place the order so all that's left is to see if the item is received in working order and good condition and personal info is protected.
Hard to find dvd that I want to own and this has best version listed. A little pricey but I want it badly enough to pay the extra.
