Sellers
You're invited to choose from the millions of books in our warehouses. But you can also support thousands of independent sellers around the world when you shop Alibris. We unite sellers from your hometown and the four corners of the globe, giving you the alternative of patronizing a world of indies instead of chain stores.
You'll find listings from independent sellers as you search or browse for items on our site. As you shop, click an item's See All Copies link and you'll receive an Available Copies page displaying all the sellers offering that particular item. You can sort these search results by seller rating, price, and condition.
All of our sellers are required to maintain strict codes of service, to help ensure that your satisfaction is high—whether you're ordering from a neighborhood bookstore in Paris, France, or a corner bookshop in Paris, Kentucky.
Selection
You'll find used, new, out-of-print, and hard-to-find books. We stock 100 million titles, so you'll be able to track down just about any book. Whether you locate what you want in our own warehouses or in our network of indie booksellers, you'll find that our selection is unparalleled.
We also offer a comprehensive inventory of music and movies—whether you're looking for a popular CD, a collectible record, or a DVD or video for entertaining the kids.
Satisfaction
Your contentment as our customer is our top concern. That's why your transactions are always backed by our money-back guarantee and our easy returns policy.
You can also rest assured that any information you supply us is secure. Your privacy is protected. Period.
Shipping
Some items listed on our Web site ship directly from our warehouses, while other items ship from independent sellers. It's easy to tell which items ship from which location. When you search for an item, notice the seller name associated with each listing. This name will either be Alibris (ships from our warehouses) or the name of an independent seller (ships from their location).
Free shipping is available on items that display our Super Value Shipping truck. When you order $49 or more of eligible items, you'll automatically receive free Super Value Shipping on those items. Find items now that qualify for free shipping.
Shipping discounts apply when you order two or more items from the same seller. Whether you add an item to your cart that ships from Alibris or from one of our independent sellers, you'll automatically receive shipping discounts for each additional item that you purchase from that same seller in the same order. These consolidated shipping discounts save you money and are easy to receive. Just click the name of the seller to access their online seller store. Then use the search fields provided to search their inventory for other items that interest you.
