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.

Gear Best has a huge selection of many products at fantastic prices. I bought a 100W Sigelei that was on sale at 50% off. Very fast shipping. Delivery took less than 2 weeks to USA. Product came as described & well protected. Customer Service replied to my email very fast. Very good shopping experience. Very happy with my purchase & plan on buying more very soon! I shop a lot online & can recommend Gear Best highly.

Recientemente he comprado en Gearbest una tablet Cubo T7 de 7 pulgadas, y aunque tengo que reconocer mis dudas iniciales en el momento de la compra, tengo que certificar que mi experiencia de compra ha sido excelente. Me han demostrado su buen hacer, por la rapidez en la entrega (13 dí­as), la buena calidad del producto, y un precio muy competitivo.

Desde luego pueden contar conmigo para futuras compras

A good store. Buy in store electronic cigarettes.The store always low prices and fast support.The only drawback-before ordering is always necessary to ask the support about the availability of goods. Regularly pleases customers with special offers and discounts

I'll just make this a quick list since english isn't my native language...

Products:
I have NEVER encountered such a great selection of ecigarette products online. You can find all kinds of atomizers, mods and driptips here and you won't be disappointed by the sheer selection. Also the quality is just amazing. Never seen such good quality!

Prices:
Some products on Gearbest aren't as cheap as you'd expect from a chinese onlineshop, but those are premium products so the extra charge is worth it, especially when compared with the same product in Germany.
But overall most of the products are pretty cheap and you can get a lot more bang for the buck compared to offline shopping!

Shipping:
Gearbest has by far the most advanced and speedy shipping services, especially when you reside in Europe.
Since you can select shipping via postnl you can choose to have your order shipped out via the Netherlands. As such you have faster shipping times, don't have hassle with the customs, etc. etc. VERY GOOD AND CONVENIENT!

Overall it's pretty likely that I will order again soon at GB.com :)

Gearbest is easy to use and to order. I ordered from another website 10-15 days before my gearbest order. My post office called me and said i had a package. I was shocked when ı saw my gearbest order. Because shipping time was nearly 13 days ago. This shopping website so fast and interested seller. Customer service is kind. I am very pleased about my shopping from gearbest.

THIS IS THE ANSWER from someone at gearbest for my according to them LOST PACKAGE ordered April 6 and didn't received until today. I ordered from mini in the box, no insurance, ordinary shipping but was received in 15 days. You are just good in giving out promises but cannot help the client on their complaints and yet you will give me an offer that made my mind blown to feel much mad and severely angry of you, you made me wait for almost 50 days and will tell me that the items are lost along the way. Then GIVE BACK MY WHOLE MONEY I PAID AS FULL REFUND. Do not give me choices, Give my whole money. Its all I want.

I have been using Gearbest for quite some time for several reasons. Firstly they offer a competitive pricing structure on toys and electronics. If you can find a product, rest assured GearBest will have it at cost or below the competition.

They boast one of the best range of stock around and are quick to pick up new products.

Customer service is friendly and professional and quick to resolve any issues which may arise. They offer live chat.

Gearbest also offer review points system. You can earn extra points by reviewing products purchased by them, which can go towards a discount on your next product.

Gearbest is my first and best reseller I use.
