The delivery time for an order from Alibris.co.uk depends on several factors. If the items are listed as shipping from Alibris, they are normally sent on the first business day after you place your order. If the items are listed as shipping from independent sellers, they usually take 2 to 3 days to process before shipment. For items from non-U.K. and non-European sellers, it may take up to three weeks to process. The total delivery time also depends on where the seller is located and the shipping method you chose. For U.K. Standard and European Standard shipping methods, the delivery estimate is 3-14 days. However, these may be delayed in transit up to 30 calendar days. For International shipping, the delivery estimate is about 2 weeks, but it may be delayed in transit up to 45 calendar days. If you have not received your order within 30 days of its shipment date, it is recommended to contact Customer Service immediately.

Alibris.co.uk has a Satisfaction Guarantee & Returns Policy. They guarantee the condition of every item as it is described on their website.

If you return an item more than 60 days after its shipment date, the item will be discarded and you will not be eligible to receive a refund.

To return an item, you need to visit the Order History in Your Account and click the order number link for the item you will be returning. From the Order Detail page, click the Return This Item link.
