Très rapide!
October 7, 2023

Ma commande est arrivé très rapidement dont un item dont on m'avait prévenue qui de vaut prendre plus de temps. Merci! Par contre, les grandeurs ne sont pas toujours exactes. Mon chandail XL est parfait mais le blouson est XXL et trop petit.

Ordered 3 different shoes...all the same size. None are the same size, all are too big. I brought this to the company's attention. Megha responded promptly and LITB offered to correct the situation immediately.

My go to online shopping first before Amazon
October 6, 2023
Updated review

Anything I want I search here first now and buy if they have it then if not I buy it in Amazon. Surprisingly it comes pretty quick considering it's from overseas so it's truly worth it and my suggestion is to read all the reviews very helpful before you buy the item so you know what to expect. For the price definitely worth it and highly recommend it

I've been buying different things on here, from clothing, auto accessories, phone accessories, bags, led lights etc … I go here first if I need anything before I go to Amazon cause it's cheaper and delivery is pretty fast and reliable! My new favorite online shopping site!

The shirt says it all
October 5, 2023

I order a birthday shirt for a for my husband, and it had something written on it. It said If ---- can't fix it we're all screwed. Everything about the shirt is so true about my husband, and he loves it. Shopping at Light in the Box is so easy, and the site has a lot to look at and its very affordable to shop. I will be shopping again soon.

Order 73300893
October 5, 2023

I ordered canvas slip-ons, sandals, and a casual print jumpsuit. I can honestly say that all three items exceeded my expectations. This was my first time ordering clothing apparel, so I had no idea whether the items would fit, or would even appear as depicted in the online photos. Both the slip-ons and sandals fit perfectly, and the jumpsuit was even prettier (and better quality) than the photos presented. I am happy with all of the items I received, and I love the fact that I was pleasantly surprised. I will continue to order from LITB based on my experience.

Xiaomi Bluetooth erabuds
October 5, 2023

Unfortunately i have to give you two evaluations. The product itse lf is produced in a good haptic quality. To listen via the earbuds creates ear pain it is so treble focused, that i could not find any equalizer software to correct it! I am not so sure if it is really a Mi ( Xiaomi) earbud, but a fake!
Delivery and Online shop worked well!
