Excellent Product and Service
July 25, 2023

The website was easy to use, the canvas painting I ordered is available in numerous sizes, and the ordering process was straightforward. The tracking data was accurate and kept me up to date with the forecast delivery date. The painting arrived within the advertised time frame. I'm very pleased with the painting, which is excellent quality and very competitively price. I highly recommend LightInThe Box.

First time buyer
July 25, 2023

Ordered two ladies polos. I sized up two additional sizes just hoping they would fit. Blousy would be ok even if too big. Garment price was acceptable, but not a real bargain.
I felt shipping cost was very high, so that may limit future purchases.
Communication was almost daily. I felt like they were trying to keep the customer informed.
Arrived just fine, no issues or additional charges.
Shirts ordered were a bright print which I anticipated, but the print on one shirt is way out of focus. Not a soft focus but a bad visual design, even for bold floral. I looked for return details but assumed it wasn't an easy process and I'd probably never get my payment back, would have to pay return shipping, etc so gave up on the idea of returning it. But definitely not an issue I could control, and I wouldn't have bought it if the photo had been accurate.
The second shirt was in focus and looks nice, but colors aren't really same as in picture. Again, won't return but not thrilled.
Had these been inexpensive then I could just live with it, but amount spent including shipping/fees was well more than I would have in a store.
Not sure if I'll be a future customer. High shipping and return policy are big deal breakers, so will just depend on the item.

You are amazing
July 25, 2023

It is hard to describe what purchases and how much goods I have from you. There is not a single thing that I or my friends do not like. I do advertising for you both at work and in my town and every time I hear positive things when it comes to shopping with you. No matter where I am, whether at home or in the store, I attract many people's attention because the goods from you are "UNIQUE". Attention because if I want something, I buy it. Thank you very much, but it does not mean that I am saying goodbye to you - your shop is a miracle of the 21st century. Regards

Very nice!
July 25, 2023

I bought 4 polo shirts they look great, true fit. I wear a Large and they were a true fit. The only negative I would say with Liteinthebox is their shipping and handling is Ridiculous in pricing. I could find the same shirts and items with Temu and they have free shipping and handling all the time. That's a HUGE game changer. I've had lots of friends and family stopped shopping with you guys and went to Temu because of your outrageous shipping costs. I have scaled back shopping with ur site as well. I hope you either cut ur shipping to a regular locked in general free or wave it totally. Or even send repeat shoppers free shipping offers as a coupon to keep us..

Great items and fast delivery
July 25, 2023

I have tried shopping several times from the site and found that the items are of excellent quality and also with regard to delivery, it is fast. It would be preferable if the shipping prices were slightly reduced. Thank you.

Pretty good
July 25, 2023

Customer care and shipping were excellent. One item was delightful and surpassed my expectations. The other one, not so much. I doubt I will wear it even though it is technically what I ordered. A little big, a little boxy and unflattering, and a less than pleasant fabric.
