The seller was very thorough and… The seller was very thorough and concerned that the book arrived. They emailed multiple times to confirm that the delivery was a success.

Alibris and their sellers make it right. Out of perhaps 200 transactions through Alibris I have only experienced 3 problems. Each time I contacted Alibris and then the seller involved, the seller then provided a satisfactory solution, for me, for the problem.

You better follow up! Alibris is fine for finding books, and the sales process is easy and they take your money. HOWEVER be aware that some sellers like "Hippobooks" will take your money and never ship your book. If you don't check up quickly, they will say it's past the deadline and stonewall you. Alibris DOES NOT support the customer in these cases.

Paid for a dirty book with folded edges… Paid for a dirty book with folded edges and a nearly broken spine. This is the last time I’ll be using this service. I don’t understand why a company would label a used book in good condition as this but I guess this is a book in “good condition”. Another thing, I paid for quicker shipping, and it came nearly a week late so don’t bother paying for extra shipping and just get normal shipping.

Alibris is my go-to place for books Alibris is my go-to place for buying books for gifts and for myself. The selection is amazing as are the prices.
