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.

Excellent
December 18, 2017

At first I was hesitant to bring a product from so far (China) while I live in Belgium (Europe) and I am not at all disappointed, the ordered items are of excellent quality and the customer support is perfect. I am very happy and I continue to buy while remaining faithful to gearbest

Hello everybody! I already ordered about a dozen products on the trading platform GEARBEST, my choice fell on this online store, for several reasons.

1 PAYPAL works with gerbest ensuring the full security of your payments!

2 until you get the goods online the site will not receive your funds!

In the third I consider this Internet platform very competitive, often the prices for gadgets, smartphones and many small household appliances are much lower in the period of numerous actions conducted in this online store!

I did not have a frankly negative buying experience in GEARBEST.
One of my recent purchases of headphones Superlux HD668B I think many know about these fine headphones, so I bought them here for more than 10 bucks cheaper!
Shipping took about 20 days from the time of order, which I think is quite acceptable!

I hope my review will help you determine your first order for GEARBEST!

ALL EXCELLENT PURCHASE!

Very good, fast and at a great price
December 16, 2017

I made the purchase on Gearbest.com. The product came to me earlier than expected. The experience of using and ordering on the website was very good, fast and at a great price. With the secure payment using credit card online, I was confident when making the purchase, but as I said there was no problem. The product coincided with what was announced and came well packaged. I was very well taken care of the doubts that came to me through the Ticket system. Certainly, I will buy again.

Awesome
December 16, 2017

It's awesome. The prices are awesome too, things that I would usually pay 100$ here In Brazil, I can pay 50 or less, I just need to be patient. I'll buy at GB more times, because with them I'm able to have the best experience plus good prices.

Gearbest is the best
December 16, 2017

Quality product, cheap prices and very useful phone app are few from many reasons that have made Gearbest my daily driver for online shopping, flash sales everyday, all along the year and diverse Xiaomi products with the lowest prices.

I highly recommend shopping at Gearbest
December 16, 2017

I have already placed several orders on Gearbest and all went well. Shipments are made to Portugal, at no cost or with very low costs, and choosing the option 'priority mail' nothing passed through Customs and on average take 15 days to deliver, which is possible to follow through the website of the gearbest and the shipper.
I have already bought more than 60 items, all with an excellent price / quality ratio.
The after sales service works well and relatively fast, any problem is promptly resolved.
I highly recommend shopping at Gearbest
Best regards

Placed an order 3 weeks ago, paid for DHL delivery, quoted at 3-7 days. Can't track my order even though I paid for a delivery method that supposedly has full tracking. Emails I sent questioning the status of my order were previously replied to (they have gone silent the last few days...), but the questions I ask always go unanswered. I get a standard, cut and paste "your order is on its way, please wait a further xxxx days" response. Unacceptable and quite disgusting lack of service. First and last time I order from Gearbest. I wholeheartedly recommend that you think long and hard before ordering from this company.

12/12 - Still haven't received the order. Still in conversation with Gearbest. Still can't get an honest response to my questions...

15/12 - They have stopped responding to all queries. They flat out refuse to give status updates.

Reliable Online Shop
March 15, 2019

I 've made quite a few orders recently from Gearbest, as I noticed that they sell items at prices lower than our local market. The experience was positive, as the items arrived in good condition, and well packed. You may consider as a small disadvantage the time that is required to get the items in your hands, but on the other hand if you plan your orders early, you can get products bought in competitive prices.

I and the site Gearbest
December 16, 2017

I live in Belarus and I use the Gearbest site recently. Ordered on the stock spinner, delivery is free of charge not tracked. How strange it was sent the next day and the track was given. The package arrived in less than a month. Spinner of excellent quality, although cheap, the child really likes. I am very pleased with the work of the site and the quality of the goods.
I hope that my other parcels will please me.
Gearbest often holds promotions and distribution of coupons, I want to recommend this site to everyone.
