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.

The site itself is well made, you can clearly see the price, shipping day and the reviews of other people. There are many promotion and flash sales and i get good things for cheap. Custom support is great, when my package didn't arrive in the time they return my money the next day.
Bought a 3d printer a year ago, the Anet A8. Still running strong. Gearbest had the best price, easiest site to use, relatively quick shipping.
Pedí unos juguetes para mi sobrino y son tan lindos que estoy pensando en pedir unos para mi! Todo llegó perfecto e idéntico al anuncio definitivamente volveré a comprar
Good quality goods are good, I have received all the offers I have been offered.
Purchased goods are not big and affordable to any person.
The best shop!
I am from Brazil, and recently i acquired a mi band 4
I'm very happy with the acquisition, and I'm looking forward to other orders from GearBest.
Fantástico e-shop. Entrega muito rápida e segura. Produtos de qualidade e com garantia. Preço acessível dos produtos. Recomendo.
GearBest offers the best prices and promotions. Shipping time is fast and delivery estimation is quite accurate.
This was one of many orders in Gearbest.The shopping experience is very good, they are always available for any problem.In this order it was Xiaomi shoes. They are 5*recommend to all
"Eng. GearBest is good in everything. Price, goods quality, technician support, sales, vendors. But delivery options are very poor. Yes it's often free delivery, but sometimes I want quick express delivery, and choose between postal services.
Русский. Магазин хорош! Есть много товаров именитых китайских брендов, отличная ценовая политика и поддержка. Надёжная упаковка. Единственный минус для меня это слишком долгая пересылка и нет возможности заказать экспресс за дополнительную плату. Почти все мои посылки независимо от выбора Ru Line, Ru express, Ru Priority все идут два мес. Жуть;( ну а так магазин на 4+"
A good seller, very diverse product present in their website.
One can easily get amazed by the offers and discounts present.
The best part of gear best is their support centre, who not under tries to understand, resolve problems but also takes time to make the customer feel like kings.
The only draw back is from the delivery, sometimes gets delayed and may even take months together
Great site for buying various electronic gadgets. Best service for buyers. Always quickly answer questions about the product. In case of problems with the goods or delivery, they are always resolved quickly: they send a new product or return money
I have bought several items from Gearbest, most of them gadgets. My experience has been very good. Every time the items have arrived in time. The gadgets have very good quality and you can find them with a great price. I really recommend Gearbest, don't forget to subscribe newsletter to receive email offers daily, you can find really cool things there.

I'm a regular GearBest customer, I use to make my online shopping in another place, but since I shop in GearBest, more then a year ago, I will simply not change to another online shop.
Products are well package, ship time is not so bad. Normally doesn't stop on Local Country Customs.
There are a lot of good opportunities, and you always find what you are looking for.
Site Support works really good. No complains at all.
Thank you GearBest!
Xiaomi Mi Mix 2s, muito bom telemovel recomendo vivamente, bem concebido tanto a nivel de sistema operativo como em hardware.
Acabamento Premium
Gearbest is an amazing website that allows you to buy interesting items with a very good price. It is very reliable, I never had a problem with shipments, and even the after sales service is working very very well. I totally trust them and I really suggest them to everybody.
Description of the product corresponds to reality, helpful to take out any doubt the delivery time has been respected, 100% satisfied
I really appreciate GearBest.

I got the 111.11-111$ coupon and I have used it make the payment two days ago. Today the cancel my order.
What I saw is that they have done the same thing in others too so is easy to assume that they plan this all along.
I have bought many thing from them but this tactics really make me consider if I ever buy anything from them again.
Fot reference this is what they send me.

It was worth to trust them and pay every cent i paid my order number is W************** i bought it since 13/01/2018
One of the best shops. You can find almost everything. Shipping was little bit too long, but it was without custom taxes in my country so I love it.
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.
