Good deals, true to size. I brought 3 pairs of sandals all fit perfectly. Good packaging and came in short time frame. Such a great selection.

Shorts
July 27, 2023

I just received my new shorts and the pocket is ripped from top to bottom
$#*!ty Quality! 100%
Never again will I buy from them!
And the worst part is... there is no number for customer service. You have to download the app
This company is garbage
Do not order from them!
Products do have flaws. I understand that...but if you can't talk to a representative then what kind of company is it!

Det er sjovt og udfordrende (for økonomien) at surfe rundt i LightInTheBox.
Vi vil alle finde ting vi lige står og mangler og kan bruge til noget..

The dress I ordered was described as linen - it was gauze! Ugly & so cheap I would'nt wear it a a nighty! The reurn is so complicated that I refuse to spend another cent on mailing back to China! Why can't I return it to the NJ address from where it came? This is a deplorable company. Do not buy a thing from them.

ELÉGEDETTSÉG
July 27, 2023

Rendszeres vásárlója vagyok az oldalnak. Sokszor előfordul, hogy egy-egy termékkel probléma van de mindig sikerült ezt a megoldani az ügyfélszolgálat segítőkészségével. Többször lehetne leárazás és az ide érkezés is nagyon lassú.

Very fine products.
July 26, 2023

The sneakers are looking very good and are very well fabricated.
One pair I have ordered one size bigger, because I could see the need for this in the reviews on the website.
And it was a correct decision. So always have a look at the reviews and also check the size table on the website.
Another order gave me the chance to see how a problem with a product is solved by Lightinthebox.
I can say that they have a very good administration / Client service, and they have solved the problem for 100%.

Hit or Miss
July 26, 2023

I have ordered quite a few things over the years from this company. The quality of the items seem like that of cos-play, but then again, that is what I ordered it for. I really do not like that they do not let you leave a 1 or 2 star review. I have ordered items that say "one size fits all" that were definitely only for the very petite. I think they count on you not returning purchases because their stuff is so cheap that it is not worth paying the shipping to do so.

Back logged order
July 26, 2023

I was a little disappointed about my order being delayed after waiting for two weeks for the initial purchase. I really liked the shirts so i decided to wait until the items were restocked. It didn't take long for the item to be restocked and my order was on the way. I look forward to receiving my merchandise when it gets here.
