I finally found a book I've been looking for a long time

I finally found a book I've been looking for a long time, a US edition that's out of print. The price was good and shipping to the UK was cheap. I hadn’t ordered from the USA before, so the shipping was a bit new to me, but Alibris customer service was great – very quick to reply and helpful. The book came today, faster than I thought, and I’m very happy – it was packed carefully and my used book looks almost new. Thanks Alibris & HPB Books!

I think Alibris is a great place.

I think Alibris is a great place. They got old books that you cant find anymore and let you see many bookshops that I would never get to visit if not for their site. EXELENT

The item I ordered from this

The item I ordered from this company eventually arrived, but it took a long time, about 5 weeks. When it arrived, I noticed that the edges were scuffed. I won't bother asking for a refund for the damaged book because I've heard from others that it's not worth the hassle. After this experience, I've decided not to use Alibris again. Their customer service is terrible, and their shipping times are too long. I was worried whether my order would arrive at all.

I got books from Alibris many times

I got books from Alibris many times becuase they had really good prices, and I was usualy satisfied with how things went. But now the delivery price is £5.99 for each book, even if I'm in the UK and only pick sellers from the UK too. That makes it cost too much, almost like buying brand new ones. Hope you change this, Alibris – you're pushing away people who always ordered from you!

Over the years, my experience with

Over the years, my experience with Alibris has generally been satisfactory. However, I've encountered challenges when ordering books from the US, particularly with the tracking process. Once the orders reach a shipping facility in the US, the tracking information becomes limited. A recent order placed in early December, which reached the US site on December 18th, is still pending as of February 15th. Despite reaching out to the sellers, who redirected the responsibility to Alibris once it reached the US site, my attempts to contact Alibris have been less than fruitful. Despite Alibris stating a 48-hour response time, it has been six days since my inquiry, and I have only received a confirmation of my query. Unfortunately, the lack of communication persists, with two weeks passing without any response from Alibris. Attempts to seek assistance from the sellers have proven unhelpful, leaving me without the ordered book and no indication of a refund. This current state of service is disappointing, especially considering the positive experiences I had with Alibris in the past.

My experience with Greener Books and Alibris has been mixed

My experience with Greener Books and Alibris has been mixed. While two out of three ordered books arrived promptly, the third, dispatched weeks ago, is still missing. Despite sending two emails, I received no response from Greener Books. Alibris provided an automated reply, warning that my response might extend their response time. After a month, the lack of further communication left me frustrated. The timely delivery of ordered items is crucial, and the unresponsiveness of the customer service channels hampers the overall satisfaction with this book purchase experience.

Ordered 3 books from the USA, costing about £45 for shipping.

Ordered 3 books from the USA, costing about £45 for shipping. I was pleased since these books are hard to find. It's been almost 50 days of waiting. They said 'Usually within 2 weeks but up to 45 days' when I asked weeks ago. They did reply fast, to their credit. No tracking included, which is poor given the high shipping fees. I've paid less for tracked shipping that got here in days from the USA. Awaiting reply to my recent email. Awful experience for my first use of alibris.

Disappointing experience with

Disappointing experience with this company. Been waiting for my order for over 3 weeks, and it's still a no-show. According to USPS, it got delivered to someone in Bell Gardens, California, but I'm in the UK. No response to my emails, and there's no phone number available, supposedly to cut costs. Can't get a refund or return the item since I never received it.

Big letdown. Waited over three

Big letdown. Waited over three weeks and still no sign of my order. According to USPS, it was delivered to someone in California, but I live in the UK. Trying to contact them is a lost cause. Emails ignored, and they don't even have a phone number, supposedly to cut costs. Can't even get a refund or return the item since I never received it.
