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.

I ordered a Hex Ohm v3 from gear best and i have to say I'm very impressed with all aspects of the service they delivered. The cost of the item was 40% lower than uk retailers, free shipping, and after placing my order gear best encountered stock issues with certain colours which may i add all correspondence was passed onto me very quickly and professionally and my order was amended and received by me in a very respectable 7 days.
My shopping Gearbest have always been very satisfactory. Prices are the best I've found on the Internet, and Customer Service has always been very satisfactory.
Shipments are fast.
Very satisfied with this shop.
This was my first experience with gear best,to be honest I was not sure what kind of service I was gonna get (especially after I read some negative feed backs from other customers )to my surprise I have to admit my experience was very positive, excellent customer service, good delivery time with tracking number for the item and great product at a very good price. I will definitely shop at gear best again and will recommend to my family and friends.

Highly recommended to all geeks and who want to buy a geek present.
Gearbest Is an amazing site that has every single rc toy or rc part you will ever find. They have great customer service and fast shipping. Gearbest is my favorite website.
I bought a Ganzo G704 red knife and a Nitecore tube flashlight. 3 times cheaper than the price in Brazil. It took me a while to receive my order but it is always due to our nasty Customs. Great quality. Specially for the price!
The best thing about gearbest is that they have amazing discounts and coupons. The price difference between sites like aliexpress or banggood is few dollars in favor to gearbest. And of you are lucky to find a coupons for your item it's even more! For example I've got a survival card for my wallet for just 0.01$.
Gearbest is one of the best gadget store on the web, if you want something with a low price. Even the shipping is not so long to arrive at destination. Really happy to be a customer
Great store! Continuously monitor the market and keep the price as low as possible to the original products. I was pleased with the order as the original ordered PowerBank Xiaomi ******* and received a truly original product and not a fake, which is very much!
I'm a sastified buyer, have many purcache with them, the Customer Service is great to solve any doubt or problem
I ordered an inexpensive smartphone. Phone came in time with the delivery address. The quality of the phone is very good, especially for the money. Telefln complies with the published specifications. Very happy with my purchase I advise everyone to this store.
Gearbest has some of the lowest prices on the market, especially with coupons or discounts. Recently I bought few smartphones and earphone. MEIZU M2 Note purchased for only $ 129.99 with free shipping, when the average price above $ 140. The product came of high quality. I plan to continue to shop in this store and recommended my friends.
I have the istick 100w from gera best, they sent it fast and safe, it is 100% original, great customer service, I haghly recomend gearbest
Super cool shop and excellent products, fast service, friendly sellers. I will order more.
Bought an Android Tv Box (order # W**************) on sale for $32 circa.

Highly recommend Gear Best to everyone.
Great!

Amazing site with amazing prices! An excelent customer service and shipping time's from Eu warehouse. 10/10 ordering again!
The site is leggit! Ordered the Xiaomi Piston 3 Earphones for a really good price. The device was 100% original. The site has great products for really good prices. And they have many flash sales which takes the prices even lower!
I have only good experiences with gearbest, always recieved my package and they offer verry low prices with free shipping most of the time.
They even changed my shipping adress after I placed my order without a lot of hassle.
The only downside is the waiting time of about 2-3 weeks to recieve your order, but thats normal iff you want such a low price.
Don't waste your hard earned cash, this is a Chinese scam site... Should come with a warning
Answer: Some people will get their products, some will not. Some will get what they expected and some will not. I got my products but one was not what they promised and one broke after a few seconds of use. They still continue to use wrong information on their website even though they admitted to me that it is not correct. I wrote a review on their web site about the product that broke after a few seconds of use and they blocked it so it still looks like the product only has positive reviews. You can see pictures and read more on my own web site that I created for telling my experience about GearBest: http://GearBestreview.azurewebsites.net
Answer: Dont really matter mate, regardless, what they do if does not arrive, they will not refund, they offer to resend at your cost. Then you do Paypal dispute, they refuse to refund unless you close the case, if you close the case, Paypal will not help. In my circumstances Paypal decided in my favour and refunded, but dragged on, avoid this company in future, Bangood better
Answer: Dear Iain, you can submit a ticket here: http://support.gearbest.com/ Our colleague will reply you in 24 hours! We are sorry that the live chart is some buzy, as many people contact over the world. So that may need customers to wait a little linger for their turn. Gearbest.com
Answer: Yes Adam, did you pay with PayPal? If Then contact PayPal and claim your money back and stat away from gearbest, they lied to me and now i an trying to get my 100 dollars back. There is a reason that they are NOT on eBay... So my advice to everyone is to stay far away from this socalled Company... No mail, no adress, no phone?
Answer: They are legit, just ridiculously slow in shipping. I waited 1.5 months for my "rush" order. It was shipped out in multiple pacakges and arrived at different times.
Answer: Same here, after 3months of waiting for my order and many conversations in an email ticket which went on for 1month they promised me to refund me via paypal. No refund and nothing heard from them since almost 2weeks. Keep writing here people, I hope lotz of people read it and gearbest goes bankrupt very soon
Answer: You can try the Better Business Bureau like I did however they never responded to them either, they did respond to the tickets I opened up on their site but the replies weren't of much use and not very helpful.
Answer: I wouldn't. It's been three months and I still don't have my order and their customer service is terrible. They just keep telling tryouts to wait longer.
Answer: I would advise you to stear clear. If the site does not let you order with free shipping then you have dodged a bullet. I got free shipping but the product was damaged an only fit for resting your cup on they offered a refund less the first shipping that was ment to be free or a replacement. As it cost 25 pounds to send back to resolve the matter I chose to except the replacement it came and was just as bad a tablet as the first. Take my advice and run a mile. Hope this gives you an idea what the company is like. Run run run a mile mate.
