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.

Great from the buying to delivering
January 26, 2019

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.

"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

Best shop for gadgets
November 18, 2018

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!

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.
