Ordered a purse via a Facebook ad. They shipped it out on July 28,2016. It is now August 12,2016 & I have yet to receive it. I emailed them and here is what they said: "It was shipped on 2016-07-28 by Standard Shipping without a tracking number. We estimated delivery will take 7-25 working days to arrive, But we hope you know that Working days exclude the weekends. Please contact me if it has not arrived within the estimated time."

With everyone sending out packages that arrive next day, 2 days, even 5 days, 25 days is much too long.

Dear Jean W,

We are sorry for bringing you an unhappy shopping experience. Standard shipping is a free shipping method for some cheap product, it is the cheapest shipping method, but the disadvantage is that it cannot be tracked when the package is being sent to abroad.It usually takes 7-25 business days to ship. But there are many uncontrolled factors like customs, weather and so on will affect the efficiency of shipping. Could you please wait one more week or consult with your local post office to see if the package is already there. This situation happens sometimes.If you still cannot find your package, feel free to contact us, we will give you a reasonable solution. Also, you can choose a quicker shipping method next time, for more shipping methods, please click here: http://www.banggood.com/Shipping-Methods_hl13 We will try our best to find more convenient shipping methods for you.

This was my first and last time ordering anything online outside of Amazon (who will refund unsatisfied customers without any scrutiny or difficulty). My product arrived and I was very disappointed in the quality of the material (Cheap fabric that smelled of chemicals). When I contacted customer service to find out the return process I was highly discouraged and told that I would be responsible for the shipping costs. Much to my dismay, the postage cost of returning an item to China costs almost as much as the dress... so now I am stuck with a dress that I will never wear. Banggood offered me to keep the dress and they will give me points... but who wants to buy anything more after seeing the crappy quality of the items! I got banged pretty good... will never, ever make this mistake again!

Be careful when dealing with Banggood as they are quiet happy to supply you with there goods. The trouble is if you want to return your goods for any reason they find every way to avoid a refund. Trying to email gets you a smoke screen and they ask stupid questions, in the end you give up. Be wary

I bought a Xiaomi Mi ******* mAh power bank from banggood.com. The product was received in Novemeber, although not used for the first time for a few months.

When I did start to use it I used it minimally and the product has probably been through 6 charge/discharge cycles before, 4 simultaneous flashing LEDs appear when trying to recharge.

The product is out of the 6 month warranty period, although the product manual states a 1 year warranty. Regardless of being under warranty, the product is not fit for purpose and considering the amount of use it has seen, this life span is clearly unacceptable, and would point to the product having a fault at the point of dispatch.

I would expect a product like this to last at least one year at the very minimum, I'm appalled at the level of customer service and emails received, it seems they know because they're in a foreign country to myself that they can get away with poor service and poor products.

I bought a very basic electronic product from banggood, it took a very long time to arrive, once it arrived, it didn't work.
I wanted to call them & there is no 800 customer support number.
I emailed them & there is no reply/customer support.
Next, I will reverse charges through Visa and no more shopping banggood.com

I bought a product that was defective. Took me several hours to upload the video they requested (huge hassle...). Because they promised to contact me "in 1-2 days" and didn't, I opened a dispute on PayPal. After that they suddenly replied that they want to send me a spare part to replace, but threatened that unless I close the dispute with payPal, they will not fix the problem. I told them that I will close the dispute once my product is in a working condition. Now I escalated it into a claim... So far, more than a month after I bought the product I have nothing and they got my money...

Dear Jeremy T,

We are deeply sorry for any inconvenience we caused.We should explain the reason why our customer service asked you to close the dispute with Paypal. It is because that Paypal has no choice about resend.If you open a dispute on Paypal, it could refund to you even though you didn't return back to the shipper. But in your case, you wanted us to resend the spare part instesd of return the product back to us.To avoid this situation and reduce unnecessary loss, we suggest you to close the dispute. Please trust us that we will take our responsility if the problem is caused by us. Also, could you please tell us your order number to check it if our customer service didn't reply you in time, we will give you some compensation and send the spare parts you need as soon as possible.

If you order from this site you will hear "out of stock", "I was on vacation". Pretty much anything to delay the delivery. All the emails you receive about the delay will be TERRIBLE broken english and completely misspelled words... mmmm sounds fishy. Then to too it off when they say your order has been shipped they give you a tracking number and a link to a site for you to look it up... BUT the site is in a COMPLET different language sooo you can't use it. Fooled me once but never again so beware.

Ordered 2 nano drones from these guys. Both arrived in non working order. Their return form requires pics, and I attached clear images showing a non-functional item (see attached). Then they wanted videos before moving forward, then they couldn't see them from a google drive account so it had to be youtube, and once through all that, weeks later they straight-up tried to haggle with me instead of doing a refund. Quote:

"Thank you for your email. Sorry for the inconvenience cause in your order *******.

Because the return of the freight is not cheap. How about we refund you US$20 as compensation, then you can take it to your local RC hobby shop for replace, will this suit you?"

Profoundly unprofessional. They agreed the products were shipped broken, didn't have the integrity to issue a refund even after dragging me through a crazy-long process to satisfy them their product was shipped broken.

Never again. They're a few bucks cheaper than Amazon for sure, but they sell shoddy goods and do not stand behind them. Buyers beware.
UPDATE
After this review they did finally issue a complete refund.

Long wait for order
July 27, 2016

I ordered 2 items on May, 10,2016. I didn't receive them until July, 27,2016. I have already disputed the charges with my credit card company and had the amounts to returned to my account. Now that I have the items I'm trying to get the charges straightened out with MasterCard. What a pain. Had I known it would have taken so long I'd never have ordered from them.

After a number of "sorry, it's delayed", I am attempting to cancel my order and get a refund - I don't have my trust that I will ever see the funds again.

I manage global sourcing for a company with 9 sites including China and India - in my opinion, Banggood has the feel of a scam-site.

Poor "live support"
July 25, 2016

I had placed an order from banggood.com and for what ever reason the order form pulled the address from my paypal, normally it would have been ok but the item I was ordering was meant to be sent to a friend. So I clicked on what was marked as "Live chat" which turned out to be an email support that takes 10 to 12 hours to get a reply back between midnight to 2am United states time might I add.

I had asked if they could fix the address on my order, gave them the order number and used the same email as my paypal. BUT! For what ever reason the only reply they could give me was "In view of the security of your account, how about we cancel the order for you and then you can re order with the new address?"

They sent me that as a reply to every email I sent back to them. A bloody copy and past... Then I get an email from the "ordering department" asking for the updated address and 30 hours later they say their canceling the order because its been 3days since the last email. Sent on friday 12am, and I replied on saturday some time after noon.

So then after I replied to them, yes I was rather upset at this time. With what was said between the "support" that they already had the address and if the "support" really passed a note to the "ordering department" shouldn't they have included the address I gave them?

And to my surprise they just cancelled the order, hopped I'll replace it and it was Best regards, by the same idiot that was emailing from the "Support" address...

So if you ask me, things at banggood.com is being ran by a clueless air head.
Will never order from again.

Also, in their email they said it would take 48-72 hours for the amount to be refunded. However in the system sent refund email it says up to 14 days.

Added for Katherine L. [Banggood Rep]
Well, your staff member Chloe never did ask for any kind of proof. Only that he/she is going to cancel my order, even though as I stated I used the email address for the paypal that I paid my order with to contact banggood so it could be fixed. Im not going to wast more of my time trying to fix your staffs laziness.

I purchased a rodeo 150 drone from bang good it took several weeks to get my drone and when I received it the transmitter was not included. When I placed the order I asked if there was anything else I needed to fly the drone they told me no, was that a lie.
