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.

Everything I ordered came in and there was no problem. If an order was sent for a long time, they apologized.

Here is new review. They told me that they will deal with me in the ticket but still don't keep their promise for insured parcels. Today I filed a chargeback claim with my bank, I think I will solve this issue by this way. Gearbest is non-helpfull when you have problems. I will also continue to share the experience everywhere I had with them.

I bought a laser engraver from these guys but it's not working and damaged. I sent proper video evidences about the issue and they made me wait 15 days and still did not respond me until I asked for an update. After my message they sent me a very stupid solution that never works. They are kidding with customers. Especially Turkish support simply sucks. I paid for insurance extra and they don't care about the insurance I paid. They are thieves! I am looking for help very quickly so that I can convert this feedback to positive one if it's solved!

My favorite online store
January 26, 2019

After spending time and money in other webstores i finally found Gearbest and my trust on online shopping changed completely, now when i want to buy something i first see if its available in Gearbest and without doubting i buy it, pre and post sell service is excellent and they have Colombia registered as a shipping option which is an outstanding service.If you have any issues you send them a ticket or via chat they tried to solve them as quick as possible in a very dilligent way, besides they have a points reward system which really helps yout buy when you want something but you don't have all the money. Until today it has been more than 40 orders placed and almost none issues..

My parents needed a smart TV, but since I have been very much in touch with the smart tv there are very limited options, so I decided to look for a tv box because the size and quality of the existing tv is satisfactory. Looking for aliexpress, but there was no confidence in reading the reviews they were different. A friend suggested a gearbest website and at that point was a sale. I read that one year's warranty was provided and it made me a lot of confidence so I decided to try. I was very surprised at the fast delivery - 5 business days. I unpacked, connected the tv box and were very pleased. Recently, friends visited us and tried the tv box and decided to order the same two pieces. This time it was possible to choose for the same price for delivery to the door. And I`m very happy to shop at gearbest because there is can pay order by paypal because its very safe and if have some problems you have 180days moneyback warranty.

My experience with Gearbest in the last 4 years

My experience with Gearbest in the last 4 years:
I've been a client since 4 years ago, and I didn't have any problem in all the orders made (I have bought more than 30 items since then, of all kind). I had to process two guarantees and had zero problems with it, all the time with an active feedback from the support team. Since a live in Spain, all the purchases can seem a bit difficult because of the distance and the time to ship the products, but it is always the time estimated (around 3-5 weeks), with the location tracking for knowing where the product is anytime.
I'm really pleased with the experience with Gearbest, the only market that so far hasn't given me any problem.

An excellent online product provider!
January 10, 2019

I've been buying in Gearbest for several years, and until now I have not had any problem with them, they have always met the estimated delivery times, the products offered are as described in the publications. The customer service is also excellent, on one occasion I wrote to request the execution of the warranty of some headphones that were defective and they solved very quickly in the best way possible without any problem. They also accept several forms of payment that facilitate the purchasing process.

I highly recommend them as an online provider of technology and other products!
