Nice dress
April 26, 2023

Pretty and fits appropriately. My Granddaughter loves it.
There is a loose stitch without time to replace it for her birthday. Colors not as bright as pictured. I am happy I bought it but I wonder how it will be wearable

Mixed results
April 26, 2023

Two items were as described and I am satisfied. The third item does not even look like the dress I thought I was ordering and I am not happy about the one I received.

Wrong sizes
April 25, 2023

I've shopped with Light in the box for over 10yrs. And never had any problems. This time I ordered some tops, according to their size chart. They were huge. I was told I would have to pay for the postal cost, to send them back. That doesn't seem quite fair.

Fast and easy
April 25, 2023

I ordered 9 items and got it in about 12 days. Processing took some time but when it was assigned to DHL it got here pretty quick in 3-4 days. Quality wise is so so but it's ok for the price you pay.

Ordered 2 Items A jumpsuite and a pair of sandals.They were recieved in a timely manner but there was a issue with the jumpsuite.It was not the one I ordered although it was nice,just not as nice as the one I wanted.I sent a email to customer service and they were quick to get back to me the next day with a few offers to choose from to remedy the issue.I was happy to accept a 70% (of the price I paid) in a coupon on my next order and keep the item that was sent to me.I appreciated their quick response and the choices I was given.I will continue to purchase from this company.

Exceptional Experience
April 25, 2023

First, my search online was for a music shirt, being a musician, I was looking for something special for a gig. Well, I found it & many other cool shirts and pants. I ordered one shirt for right now, it was delivered when they said it would be and when it arrived, I honestly did not expect the quality to be so top-notch. I was so pleased with the quality of the shirt and the fit, which was perfect. We're looking for a dress now for my wife for a special family event coming up. She already got short boots from LightIn TheBox and loved them, very comfortable and fit perfectly. Thank you LightIn TheBox! Great products and great quality at a great price! Unbelievable!

No longer a customer
April 25, 2023

I was hesitant to order from this company because of their shipping charges policy. I finally decided to give it a try. My first order was on March 31. I received the items on April 22. They did email me regarding the delay and the option to cancel the order. The items were not the same color as the picture, except for the black shirt. I decided to keep the black shirt and donate the rest, since I didn't want to pay shipping charges to send them back. I buy from another online store similar to this one but they are far better with shipping charges, customer service and quality.
