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.

Love it!
April 28, 2015

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 web service
April 27, 2015

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.

MADE FOR CUSTOMERS
April 24, 2015

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 :)
