Alibris

Excellent but placing items into wish cart after on the check out cart is confusing. Just deleted them instead. The other confusion is as you place items into cart, it is notated how much more you need until free shipping is applied. It never seems that you reach that limit.
The other issue is when I tried to utilize my $5 coupon for signing up, it the page was not accessible.
You are still my favorite store!

Significant defacing of the book with ownership paraphernalia found on the dust jacket back edge, both sides of the front endpaper, the title page, stamps on the front, top and bottom edges, etc.

I suppose the Texas State Technical Institute library must have anticipated this would be a highly desirable item given the steps they took to help identify their ownership. However, in this was the case, why did they ever give it up?

Sellers always ship quickly. Only complaint I ever have is when specifically choose good condition hardcover books and they are just shipped in plastic bags so corners all banged up, so I don't bother with choosing more expensive very good/excellent condition books anymore. As they cost more money, sellers sabotaging themselves. If shipped media mail, could put in boxes for less shipping costs, who cares if takes a little longer. Should be an option to preserve the condition of books in good shape. Other than that, always good experience with Alibris sellers.

1. Made me give credit card info 3 or more times, without explanation, which signifies there is none. 2. Got email yesterday saying $20 bonus, but there was no bonus for my purchase, so misleading. 3. Jumps between screens with no explanation. 4. When shipping address first appears, it can't be editied, and no message as to how to do that later. So it was confusing.

I am happy with Alibris. I appreiate the effort of the consolidated shipping based on cost, however, one of my primary criteria for choosing a book store is its location even if it costs a bit more.
Your insistence that I agree to have this posted on a social media site is unfortunate and the ONLY reason I am agreeing is so that you will see this comment. In the future I will not provide my opinion which I thought was for your purposes not advertising.

I wanted to order a book for a friend who had asked to borrow a book from me upon my finishing it. As my friend is my fantastic Sunday School teacher I wanted to give her this book for her own. I didn't think about this book published in 2012 being out of print now. I was so happy to find this book (Simple Understanding Revelation) at this website. I was even more pleased to receive it timely AND in mint condition. Thank you Alibris for being such a reliable business.

I'd gone to Goodreads, as is my usual practice, and linked to you for the book "The Economics of Discrimination," by Gary S. Becker. I was asked to sign in but wasn't returned to the book page and the message said there were no available copies.

However, when I went back to Goodreads and linked in again there was the page I'd first seen with the list of this book. I hope that it is actually available and will arrive! :O

I've found some great books through Alibris over the years - glad to see Amazon hasn't obliterated this store.
If I had anything I'd say was disappointing, its the fact your PayPal portal will only accept transactions in US dollars.
I've done innumerable transactions using PayPal, and cannot recall the last time I wasn't able to transact in Canadian dollars.
Please update this.
Thanks again for still being there...

It took me an inordinate amount of time to place this simple order for one book that I could have done much more quickly with Amazon for essentially the same price. Initially, the system would not accept my "I am not a robot" answers, then it would not accept my new address, among other issues. I preferred to support your store rather than Amazon, but now think my choice was not worth the extra effort and time.

The shipping is to high on these books when the shipping is the same cost as the books themselves it can be frustrating and sometimes the free shipping doesn't register for books once you place them in the cart. So that's a pain as well. Overall i will continue to use the site because for some of the books i have found they were defiantly cheaper on here than other places and with the shipping still a bit cheaper

Alibris is the only used book website where I order books. Since I rarely buy new books, that means a lot of books for a given year. I have a library of about 2,000 books and have only been disappointed once in the past many years. I began ordering from Alibris after half.com discontinued service. The communication from sellers is very satisfactory and the way Alibris keeps me informed when books are shipped is pleasing. I'm a satisfied customer who looks forward to continued satisfaction.

I love shopping at Alibris Books--supporting local and independent book sellers means a lot to me. When possible, I try to get second-hand reads into my hands, first. It feels better than new. It is one little way to accomplish keeping informed and minimize cutting more trees for paper. Alibris is my first go to--on line.

Very impressed w/ orderly arrangement of products for sale, e.g., music, books, movie, etc. Makes sense! Also, the choice of sellers is easy to understand & navigate--I contacted one book seller Solr by email to find out if the used book they were selling was highly dusty (allergies) & they emailed back w/ details & evident concern. Alibris is now my "go-to" source for great prices, selection & quality of sale. Thanks for doing a great job!

Shopping for books through alibris is a pleasure! I have found so many books on this site that were not available in my local library. Sellers provide excellent detailed descriptions of their used copies, so prospective buyers know the exact condition of a book before making a purchase. Alibris is the best online marketplace for new and used books.

I love Alibris as I can almost always find the book I am looking for in good condition. Over the years, I have made some very exciting finds! I don't know how Thriftbooks does it, but I can often get free shipping at their website which is an incentive to buy through them. Could Alibris possibly do the same thing? If so, I would purchase only from you.

This one was simple as always. Had an issue or 2 during a Dec. Order. Was refunded for an LP I didn't order. But never recieved the cd of Silver Morning from. For some reason when I reviewed details. That says returned as well. So I lucky found another CD for Silver Morning and placed the order. This should run smooth. Service has been great but you need to be patient when an issue arises. They will take care of it just tales a little longer than expected. Thank you!

Alibris has been great. I really enjoy the idea of supporting small Bookshops over amazon. I'll always support my local family owned bookshop first but they don't have everything. And with alibris I always find what I'm looking for and get to continue to support small bookshops. Shopping on alibris is quick and easy. All the info about sellers and book conditions is clearly posted as well as shipping times and costs.

I had to reset my password. I had books in my cart which "disappeared"? Why? When I searched for them the Cumulative Cloth "uses" edition was no longer available - coincidence? Or?

Received a polite and intelligent reply to the issue - it was what I expected - lack of foresight in the computer programming which left the item off the website. Nice to do business with a company that sends a comprehensive response!

Got a bit confused when the first entry of my MC payment did not go through, then realized, after review, that it wanted me to buy more. I've read all this author's other works, so I did not need an additional copy. It might help to put that note somewhere on the ordering page. Otherwise, excellent, thank you. JBL

I repeatedly (8-10 attempts) tried to place this order, and your website would not let me move beyond the log-on page. I only got it through when you emailed me that I had left something in my cart. Your website decided at that time to put it through. Very frustrating and time consuming. I attempted to reach customer service for help and was unsuccessful. You got 2 stars instead of 1 because you have done better on previous orders.

Grateful for the reprint of this hard to find memoir of my ancestor, Rebecca Crispin Hubbs, published 1853. I originally ordered 2 copies to check quality, was very pleased. Larger book, larger print, clear, easier to read than the original book. Ordered 4 additional books for family gifts and plan on ordering more to auction off during family reunions.

It's true -- I LOVE "online window shopping" at ALIBRIS! Incredibly efficient filtering options allow for ALL of my needs... NEW BOOKs (gift).USED BOOKs (for me). Etc. And seeing the booksellers' ratings does help steer my final purchase. I'll be back!

The system made me update my CC billing address three times before it would accept it. That's annoying.
