Disappointing
January 19, 2023

I ordered 2 gowns, since the gowns arrived too late for the event I was prepared to return although light in the box stated that my dresses were custom ordered. It was disappointing as I never sent my measurements! How can my order be a custom order?. Every other company I bought from allowed a return without making it so difficult. I will never buy from light in the box again nor will I recommend this company

January 18, 2023

I ordered on 12-14-2022 I am still waiting for my order it is 01-18-2023. There is no responce from customer service and no real way to complain to them. These were Christmas presents to my children. They currently advertise all orders ship within 24 hours. Is anybody else waiting?

I like this site.
January 18, 2023

I like to shop at LightIn TheBox. Most of the time I get what I ordered. However, you really should read the reviews before you buy. I have gotten things that did not look at all what I ordered. They are good about refunding my money.

Great case!
January 18, 2023

I ordered the case because I wanted one that was white and kind of glittery. I ended up picking this one because I like the way it looked. It was very inexpensive and the shipping was faster than I expected. I honestly will probably order all of my cases from here from now on. It's also a lot sturdier than I expected, too, which is a plus.

I'm seriously very satisfied with everything I have ordered. Pricewise you couldn't ask for better and you will not find them either. Okay, you have to wait a little bit longer (sometimes) but it's truely well worth...

I live in the Netherlands, and I'm addicted to this site..
