I bought 2 dresses through Light in the box a few months ago. The first one was so-so ok, pretty poor quality for a dress costing over €160. The 2nd dress cost €248. Unfortunately I had to pay import taxes of €138 on these before I could take delivery of them. Since I was insured for this, Light in the box guaranteed that I would get the taxes back. Unfortunately, I am still waiting for this refund to this day. The 2nd dress also did not fit at all so I asked for a refund of trade it. A 50% refund was promised which changed to 50% credit after my agreement. So I am still waiting for over €250 but get purely standard emails in response. Expensive dresses, poor quality and poor service.

LightInTheBox Some Great Finds
April 12, 2023

A friend introduced me to LITB and I've found some good buys. They have great kitchen doodads that are hard to find as well as gardening. I've purchased clothes that I've been happy with. These are medium quality but for knocking around, they are fine. Give it a go but be careful in sizing. When it says to size up, not necessarily so!

Veldig god kvalitet og passet perfekt I størrelse. Forsendelsen gikk fort og greit og prisen var det ingenting å si på. Kjøper gjerne flere ting i fra dere i løpet av våren.

Beautiful Dresses
April 12, 2023

It is very easy to shop at LightInTheBox. The merchandise and clothes are very nice. You should always check the sizing chart but you should do that on any site if you want to get the best fit.

Great experience!
April 12, 2023

Shipping was relatively quick, most of the items I purchased were great with only one needing return (which I have yet to do). Definitely pay attention to the size chart and all the reviews really helped.

You know how difficult it is to go from store to store burning time and energy. Well kick back and relax. You found the sight to enjoy shopping once again. If your purchasing clothes it is a little tricky to figure size at first. Some of the material may say micro-elastic when ordering and not be stretchy. Also don't look for labels on the garments. All of my dresses were of quality material and stitching. If a few of your garments don't fit, rather than pay shipping back, just take a rewards option and then average cost. You still have a bargain.

Great experience!
April 12, 2023

I was a little sceptical at the begining giving the circumstances related to ordering pretty much anything from oversieze due to the shipping delays and overall delays these days. I am glad to order anyways. Everything ordered came in the promissed time frame. Products were exactly as described. Very happy customer! Thank you all!
