The Alibris marketplace for new and used books, music, and movie items is now accepting PayPal for online payments. Alibris shoppers may now use PayPal to make purchases for items from the marketplace'ss 12,000 independent sellers around the world.

Alibris President & CEO Brian Elliott said, "We were very happy to see holiday book buyers react so quickly and favorably to the addition of PayPal to Alibris. Immediately after we launched it, new and returning customers adopted the PayPal payment method in droves, confirming the desire for ecommerce payment alternatives and driving increased sales to our independent sellers."

Elliott reported that in the weeks since the new payment method was added, more than ten percent of Alibris shoppers chose PayPal during checkout.
