Gearbest Reviews Summary

The company's reputation is significantly marred by widespread customer dissatisfaction, primarily stemming from persistent issues with order fulfillment, delays, and inadequate customer support. Many customers report difficulties in receiving refunds, with some waiting over a year without resolution. While a minority of reviews highlight positive experiences regarding product quality and timely delivery, these instances are overshadowed by the overwhelming negative feedback. Overall, the sentiment reflects a lack of reliability and transparency, leading to a recommendation for potential buyers to exercise caution when considering purchases from this company.

Very good place to buy
August 10, 2018

Hello everyone. I buy a lot from gearbest.com and I am completely satisfied with this shop. I have purchased several things from there and all goods were delivered in 3-6 weeks to Poland. The quality of customer service is also very good from my experience. They reply once a day and are very kind to help you. I also like the payment methods since there are plenty to choose. I live in Poland and I can pay even via polish middlemen services like Przelewy24 etc. which gives me more safety. Also there is a good addition with points so you can go below the sales price even further. Will definitely buy more goods in future.

I bought a phone from Gearbest less than a year ago and it died. I approached gearbest about a refund/replacement and after much umming and ahhing, they said they'd give me a whole 50 USD to spend in THEIR STORE for my troubles. Nevermind that this device cost me nearly 500 AUD and now I don't have a phone to use. I will be reporting this business to the ACCC for this illegal misstep.

Gearbest attempted to help this customer through the SmartCustomer Resolution Center, but the customer did not respond

Trustworthy supplier
August 10, 2018

I made an order from GearBest and I can say the following:
- Best price in the net for the product I ordered.
- Timely delivery and in perfect condition. They also provided order tracking.
- Great customer service. Whenever required, they provided timely, accurate solution. They also provided me a person with the same origin as mine.
- Proactive approach in customer care.
I would recommend GearBest and will purchase again, in case I am interested in a product.

Gearbest deneyimi mükemmel
August 7, 2018

Diğer çin sitelerine nazaran daha kurumsal. Fiyatlar daha uygun, en çok alışveriş yaptığım site kesinlikle Gearbest. Ayrıca ürünlerinin sonuna kadar arkasında. Herhangi bir sorunda müşteri odaklı çözüm sunuyor. Sizlere de Gearbesti tavsiye ederim.

I ordered Xiaomi redmi note 4 track number RG*******BE. Parcel didn't come to Ukraine. Gearbest don't return my money. After I made few tickets they blocked my account, Now if I want log in (my account *******@bk.ru) it is an error "Your account is experiencing technical issues, please contact our Support Center". So I lose my money and they delete my account, I didn't recommend buy from Gearbest anything!

Заказала смартфон Xiaomi redmi note 4, трек номер RG*******BE. Телефон так и не приехал (можно проверить на любом сайте для проверки треков). Писала им много раз тикеты но они просто тянули время. Одного дня просто забанили или удалили мой аккаунт (*******@bk.ru) при входе ошибка "Your account is experiencing technical issues, please contact our Support Center". Писала им на мейл но ответа нет только ссылка на новый тикет но войти прочитать нельзя так как удалили аккаут. Не рекомендую у них покупать в магазине Gearbest так как окажитесь без денег и без товара, а потом вас просто забанят.

Já comprei varias coisas na gearbest, dentre elas comprei um carrinho de controle remoto wltoys *******. Me surpreendi com o produto. Ele é muito rápido e de boa qualidade... o melhor foi o valor... o mais em conta de todas as lojas. O carrinho é um ótimo custo x benefício. O atendimento ao cliente é excelente. Recomendo a loja e o produto. Comprarei mais em breve.
