I find it strange that the book I ordered is not available and now have to pick another... Why does this happen?
I've made good purchases in the past
Date of experience: March 4, 2024
While nothing is perfect, the process of finding and then ordering the book, that I wanted, went as well as I expected.
Because it has in the past provided me with the book that I wanted at a fair price, and then successfully shipped it to me.

You had the book that I wanted, and the process for buying it went smoothly. Alibris is now my default bookstore.

See above, please. In the years, many, that I have shopped at Alibris, the only difficulty is choosing which I actually have time to read.

I really like the new shopping aid for getting better prices.
It is my usual go-to book place.

This is my place to shop for used books, trustworthy descriptions, good prices.

Alibris remains "my" bookstore, the place where I can find whatever arcane or homely book I want for a price that fits my limited budget. The booksellers are honest about the condition of used books and prompt in shipping them.

It has been my go-to book shop for a number of years.

Time after time I find what I am looking for, however obscure it may seem, almost always at a price I can afford. Carefully wrapped, reliably shipped. Alibris is my bookstore.
It is where I always look for books

I find it perplexing that I am charged full shipping for each of 5 identical books ordered from the same vendor. Not efficient!
Date of experience: March 3, 2024
So far, so good. I just hope the book arrives as promised.
I have had fairly good experience w/ Alibris for several years. But. I am wary after times that I never received what I ordered and paid for.

I am responding to an email telling me I have a $20 credit which expires at midnights. I cannot find any reference to this in the ordering or purchase choices. How do I make use of the $20 credit on a $46 credit?

It was fast and the prices were good or better than I expected.
The prices were good and usually the ratings of the book are correct. Fair is fair and good is good.

Lots of choices and trustworthy.
Date of experience: April 29, 2024
Quick and quick bookstore. I just want them to show some "see-through" of the book like what they do at Amazon. Other than that, Alibris is the best bookstore.
Best bookstore, quick delivery via USPS-Post Office.
Date of experience: February 23, 2024
I like Alibris because they ship fast and they have a large collections of important books. One thing I like them to feature in their website is for them to place a quick view of the book item so customers can see what is in it for at least some pages. Other than that, I thank God, I discovered Alisbris. I like their discounts and free shipping, too. That's awesome. Thanks a million and Gid bless in love and light🙏🥰
Because they have all the books that I like especially the books of Saint Germain. I trust them.
