Highly recommend it!
Been trying to get to a customer service person to find out how to return my purchase. Also they send me two dresses I ordered only one. Need to return both dresses for a refund to my account. I hope I can have some email me with instruction. Thank you
I am very honored and feel confident about every order which i placed though light in the box
Packages arrived in good condition and all items were what was expected. Quality was satisfactory for price. Delivery was longer than anticipated.
Nice shoe for a good price and delivery time was on spot. I'm happy with my purchase.
Well your running about a 96% rating and that's not bad as the company can tell i am a awesome customer and really enjoy your products plus very affordable thank. You. Pat w.
I'd give them no stars at all if that was an option. I've ordered clothes and a light fixture from LightInTheBox and both have been bad experiences. The clothes are of very poor quality and cheap materials. The light fixture didn't come with instructions. They only provide customer service via emails. When billed, the charges are coming from a US address, but it is very obvious their site and customer support are from China. After several attempts to get installation instructions, they sent a blurry one-page pdf with instructions that have horrible grammar and basically, illegible. Also, turns out the light fixture wiring does not meet U.S. wiring standards, nor do the wires have the correct "ground/hot" connections to connect properly. They have a no-return policy for any light fixtures. I'd suggest buyer beware; spend your money elsewhere.
Everything so far has been very good. Range of stuff is wide and prices are low. Delivery has been on time.
I gave the highest rating because I received the order ahead of schedule, there was good tracking control, and the size of the XL coincided with my size absolutely. The color and quality of swimming shorts are very good. I recommend for shopping.
Very beautiful design. Arrived quickly. Looking forward to wearing it when it gets warmer in Canada.
It's a beautiful dress, good quality and it was a perfect fit. It's for an upcoming cruise and I couldn't be more pleased.
Shipping was a little slow
I think there must have been a problem with one of the shirts, it was in quality check for three days, but was corrected
EXCELLENT SERVICE AND QUALITY
When shirts did arrive I am very pleased
The shirts I ordered are very comfortable and nice, they ship fast, and the shirts are made of very high quality materials.
I received the incorrect item in the post after waiting for an extended period of time already. After enquiring if it would be returned and exchanged for the correct shirt, the response I received back was unsatisfactory for the mistake they had made. Their response can be seen below.
"Considering the problem confirmation is quite time-consuming, we can go with a simple way that you can keep this item with a (a) REWARD (values 50% of item price, same as a coupon/voucher, can be used on next order for discount) or (b) a partial refund (30% of item price) as the discount on this order.

Some items were good but some were too small and fabric cheap. It took 1 month to come and a part off it was canceled
So far I have made several orders with only a couple issues. One being size was running a little small and other was an item became unavailable. However company refunded money and added bonus refund.
First time customer, products ordered was exactly as shown, too many styles to choose from. Total wardrobe being replaced!
I ordered three items and I am happy with them all and they came sooner than I expected
I like to buy online, so I try and is easy to follow and finish the process, what I don't like is that they take a lot of time to send, is confusing when you buy the item says 3 to 5 work days,,,,, then arrives after 12 work days at the end took a long time to arrive.
Toutes mes commandes ont fini par arriver
Les envoies sont rapides mais par la suite suivant la destination, les transporteurs sont plutôt mal organisés exemple mon colis arrive a Sidney en Australie puis plus de nouvelle pendant plusieurs semaine pour la Polynésie française. 3 mois ce sont écoulé avant de recevoir mon colis 3 mois entre Australie et la Polynésie
Je pense que l'Australie au niveau transporteur devrait faire des efforts sur le délai
