The website was a lot easier to use this time... to be fair haven't used this site for several years.
I am a former librarian and used to deal with Alibris in the past.

Easy. I'm impressed at being able to purchase old classics at such a low price in such an efficient fashion.
A complex computer algorithm I built. Either that or I Googled the title of the DVD whereupon Alibris came up.

Price/availablility.
Date of experience: May 11, 2021
Can navigate windows, find various versions of books, sort by price, etc. easily. Good descriptions of book condition. Good coupons.

Website acted weird. I ordered as a guest, not login to account, then selected item, then specified the recipient and mailing address. Then it tried to make me create an account and put in mailing address again. Rather than that, I went "back" a couple screens and got to payment screen and it allowed me to order without setting up an account. This is a one-time gift so I didn't want recipient's address to be my permanent address.
Came up in duckduckgo search for whole30 guide... and was cheapest
Looking for that particular book as a gift
Date of experience: February 23, 2021
Stop adding to the total price as I go. It's predatory. Shipping and taxes should be included in the price.
Leave me alone
