Your payment system was down I tried for hours came back hours later and could finally make my purchase. Your CSI rating is poor as a result

See above..

I love Alibris booksellers...
I knew there would be a large selection of sellers for what I was shopping for.
Date of experience: February 6, 2021
Got a good price, although when I first looked for the book it was $3 less, but then that offer disappeared when I went to check out.
Affordable price for book and low shipping cost.

Convenience and price

Thank you for being able to fill my order in such a professional manner. This is one of the reasons I will continue to shop with you
My son in prison at WSP recommended you because you use some of your profits for humanitarian reasons, plus you sell softcover books that the prison will accept, not hardback, and also you have a great selection. Thanks.

From the cart view, it would be helpful to see what condition used books are in instead of simply seeing that a title is a used book.
Date of experience: April 19, 2022
I love Alibris. My only complaint is that, when reviewing my shopping cart, I can't see the condition of the specific books that are in my cart. I'd like to be able to review that info as well before I commit.

When looking at different books, it would be nice to sort by seller so I can buy multiple books from the same seller and save on shipping
Date of experience: March 25, 2021
Check out was easy and I was able to find the manga series I wanted at a decent price
Looking for specific manga series that I wasn't able to find in my area. Also a pervious positive experience.

Great price. Easy payment. I was in a hurry and your site has a hardcover I want to read.
Date of experience: June 20, 2024
Alibris is great! I do wish there were an easier way to limit search to a single seller to economize on shipping costs when buying multiple titles.
Alibris is my go-to source for books.

Fair prices for used books

Shipping at other "used book stores" I have used, charges much less for shipping. First time I am using this site. Don't know if I'll be back.
I saw a book I liked.
Date of experience: January 27, 2023
I have looked on a number of sites for a used copy of this book. Your site had it at far and away the most reasonable price.
I've had good experiences in the past
