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.

I've done a number of purchases at Gearbest and so far they have all worked very well. Fast customer service and good quality product.
I order a phone from Canada and waited for a month but no update with the provided tracking #. Message Gearbest and was told to check with local custom?. Two months and still no update. Finally I requested a refund. Wonder if they ever ship the product and holding my money for two months. After 4 months it still show in transit when I check my order.
As for my application though it was a problem but we were able to bypass it with the support team and thank you very much for all the support

It's been almost 2 years since I placed orders on this website and I can guarantee you that it is the best among the best. I bought tens of products and I received all the time and their customer services is very responsive, their prices are very low with good quality products.

"My experiences with gearbest are excellent, and even when orders are slow to arrive or don't arrive (I definitely impute these problems to postal services outside of GB), the support center is ready to solve all my problems. I will continue to buy from them both for the prices but above all for the priceless assistance they provide.
Le mie esperienze con gearbest sono ottime, e anche quando gli ordini tardano ad arrivare o non arrivano (imputo questi problemi sicuramente ai servizi postali esterni a GB), il centro supporto è pronto a risolvere ogni mio problema. Continuerò a comprare da loro sia per i prezzi ma soprattutto per l'assistenza impagabile che forniscono."

I've bought more ten 20 items from Gearbest.com. I'm very satisfied with this shop. I've got 100% of ordered items. There are wide selection of goods. Fast shipping. Lots of discounts and other bonuses. The best part is good from EU warehouse, where you don't have to pay taxes if you buy inside EU. I really recommend to others.
Prices are usually cheap. They have a very understanding customer service. They help immediately when there is a problem with the order.
Gearbest has very good prices and excellent offers. Also the customer support was great when I needed them!
In the bottom line, dont have any complaint, the prices are good, the service is fast and practical,
And the products are as described, so, yes, im satisfied
Bought a Fiido e bike and it was delivered to Denmark in only 5 days. The bike was much better quality than expected and it seems like Gearbest only wants quality product in their shop. Next time I need to by some new tech or similar, I will always look at Gearbest first. A serous company that I really recommend.
I'm really pleased about shopping on Gearbest.com, they provide a lot of good premium quality items such as phones and tablets also they often sale the good ones. Providing a fast shipping and packiging
Best Chinese online store!
I have ordered many smartphones, accessories, and others things.

Customers service is very kindly and serious if you got a problem with your order
Will buy again again and. Again
Muy aconsejable mejorable el tiempo de entrega pero por lo demás perfecto CV aconsejable la compra en Gearbest. Sobre todo si no se tiene prisa en recibir
I have to buy a new filter for my Xiaomi Mi Air Purifier and the best choice is on Gearbest. I found a lot of filter types and good price for the value. Shipping time was for a package from China to Italy, expecially for the lower shipping cost.
Reccomended seller!
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.
