Gearbest is a very good website to buy any product, with a low price compared with other website.
Gearbest is the best :)
I'm very grateful to say a word about excellent and very reliable online store of electonic gadgets. They have their own very big stocks.
They tested every gadges before sending to customer.
Frequenty there are a lot of actions and discounts and that proposals they send if your want to e-mail.
The GREAT GREAT store ever seen. Always excellent buying.
Really awsome store with cool products, New products. Good customer service with fast replies.
Cheap products compared to other websites.
Alot of positive comments on products in store.
I really like this site. They have an excellent support service. Fast and free shipping around the world. When you're tracking you can actually see a picture of your item, ready to ship. That makes me feel more confident that my package is being sent. If you are a fan of today technologies or just enjoy fun stuffs and cool gadgets, then Gearbest is your site.
It shows nice things for incredible prices but at the time to pay, you find out that your full Name, Complete Address and Credit Card information is not enough, they also want your phone number or no deal
To me, this looks as a hoax that is used just for obtain information from people and then sale the list to telemarketers etc. Otherwise, why I can't just simply pay and get the merchandise shipped to my address?
Do they have an address in the United States?
Do they show their phone number?
Too Good to be True - If you can't buy their merchandise, it may don't exist in the first place
If has four legs and walk in the roof and says MIAU, it is a cat | This thing has all the signs for a Hoax so I am pretty sure that it is in fact a hoax and not a legitimate business
Great website, i received quality items with free shipping within a fortnight from china and i live in Australia! It would usually take a month or 2 from ebay and even then i might have to pay postage.
The prices are fantastic and quality on par with ebay, i am glad i found this website and will happily continue to use them.
Hello,
My name is Rob and I've ordered 4 items so far from GearBest.com. The first two have arrived already. They were two micro quadcopters by Syma. They arrived in a prompt manner and in excellent condition. And I'm confident that my next two items will be along in 4 to 6 weeks. These next two items are mini sized quadcopters.
I trust Gearbest and would order from them again! - Rob B.

Es una buena tienda online para hacer compras. Buen precio y productos de gran calidad. 100% recomendable
Lets just start from tue beginning One day i saw a adv. Of GEARBEST.COM on my social network and i was just shocked after seeing the jaw dropping pricings. I just quickly opened the link of it and starting checking out the stuffs. I got so many things to buy and I was feeling great to have a shopping site BUT the problem was only i never done a international shopping from just a website. But in last i ordered some hobbygrade things from Gearbest.com for testing purpose only Now, the result is clear they are trustworthy and I am proud to be a customer of GEARBEST.COM :) On the other hand delivery was as expected they Done it before time after all they know the value of time. ;) Next, undoubtedly the package was well packed all over. I got my item in time and at affordable price what else now? (i hope nothing) This is all done by these peoples really appreciate their work. Tons of thanks to GEARBEST.COM Now i m ordering new things and i hope you guys also will give a chance. Keep shopping :)
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.
