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.

The best
March 21, 2017

I am very happy with the purchases made by Gearbest. I purchased YOKATV KB2 PRO Wireless Android TV Box 3GB. I find them reliable, accurate and with great customer care, even after sale. I also received information before a purchase, and in the rare cases where I had a problem I was followed meticulously by the staff. The goods I have always received with precision and integrity. I want to share my positive experience with all of Gearbest.

I used often gearbest to buy phones, headsets, gadjet, etc. The prices are much lower competition, support staff is always available and deliveries are fast. My last purchase was a Xiaomi redmi 4 Pro. This product was great, arrived quickly. I highly recommend everyone to use this platform, you will not regret.

However, as you are a valuable customer, we are willing to help you the best way we possibly can.

Here are the best solutions we can offer you in this situation:

1) Resend the item upon repaying 50% of the order value.

In this case we will send you an invoice to submit the payment of 11USD via PayPal.

Please confirm your shipping address again in this format:

The delivery information
Customers: *

2) Partial refund to your Wallet as store credit.

We can refund 11USD as a gesture of good will to your Wallet and exceptionally reward you with extra points (You will receive 2 points for every 1 USD. For example 3 USD will gain you 6 points).

He comprado alrededor de 30 paquetes y 28 han llegado en perfecto estado a mi casa, y los otros dos que no llegaron me han devuelto mi dinero,

Gearbest es una empresa seria y con super ofertas

Yo recomendaria que en su pagina web las ordenes que ya han sido entregadas dejen de visualizarse junto a las otras

Gracias.

Quick delivery, genuine products, cheap products, lots of options on products. I would recommend this shop if you do not need this item urgently as it takes usually 25 days as it goes through ground delivery, also the shop is cheap and it has promotions all the time so you can find some cheap products from time to time

I'm very happy to shopping items from gearbest. I have been with many shops and sellers, had bad times and good times upon each of my purchases in general. Since i firstly purchased from Gearbest i must say that they are really honest, friendly and the items they sell have good quality. The products arrive very fast with your express delivery system. I am very satisfied and they have great prices.

I've purchased several items from GB but once an issue arose with a product that they sold me $127 & never claimed it was on back order until I reached out to them the second time did they show their true colors. They will never issue you a refund, NEVER! Only a credit to their store which is illegal in most civilized countries but not CHINA. How popular would they be if they stated "no refunds"? But this is who they are.

Gearbest recomendada
March 19, 2017

Já faz alguns anos que realizo compras na Gearbest.

Na maioria das vezes compro acessórios para smartphone, dispositivos de IOT, e alguns gadgets como MiBand, por exemplo.
Nunca tive problemas com compras na gearbest e sempre fui bem atendido. Para mim, é o melhor lugar para comprar produtos Xiaomi. Hehe;)

Por fim, recomendo a loja.
