You are always prompt, prices are fair, and books are in very good condition. It is a pleasure to shop with you.
Your processes for selling books are simple and straightforward, preferable to Amazon's multiple step verification process, which can drive a person mad.

My preferred vendor!

You repeatedly lost either my security number or credit card number, which was
Time consuming.
You usually have what I want at a competitive price and provide prompt service.

Was excited that the book, I was looking for was in ebook format.
Was looking for the following book, 'Both Sides: Stories From the Border', due to one of my favorite authors, J. Todd Scott contributed a story to the book and was happy to see that it was available in ebook.

I appreciate how quickly I found the book I was looking for & then quickly checked out! I was finished shopping within 5 minutes! Awesome!
I did a quick used book search & chose Alibris because it had the lowest price on the book I needed.

Easy except I couldn't choose which of my PayPal accounts I wanted to use and the one chosen for me was not the one I wanted. I ended up using a credit card instead.
I did a google search for a book I wanted.

Able to find a specific book on web development quickly, and it was the ISBN I was looking for (which was the edition needed for what I need to learn at the moment). Thank you.
Seeking a specific textbook at an affordable price. On a budget, but I still want to advance my knowledge, and train for a career.

I got confused about purchasing "An Artificial Night" because the picture indicates it's an audiobook. I'm pretty sure I'm not actually purchasing an audiobook now, but I almost didn't get it

Very easy to find what you're looking for at Alibris, place your order and the books come very promptly
Because I wanted a paperback book

My experiences with Alibris has been absolutely fantastic. I am always excited with the speed with which my order is processed and shipped.
I've started using Alibris at the start of the pandemic, and they have always had the books that I wanted for prices that are wonderful. It's great that they inform buyers of the condition of the book and every used book that I've ever received has been in fair and good condition. I have no problems getting used books which is great for my wallet and allows me to purchase more than one, even books that are rare or hard to find.

Fast, smooth and easy. Great so far. Since I live in Hawaii, I just hope the shipping method isn't one that goes by boat.
It was the only one that had this item that would ship it to me reasonably.
