Great customer service from Ana (LITB)
December 26, 2022

I ordered many clothes but, unfortunately, one of the items was full of spots: unwearable. I wrote to LITB and received already an helping mail from Ana after a few hours. Then all went very smooth: in less than 72 hours everything was handled and the refund was on my account!
WHAT A GREAT SERVICE... I had even not to return the item. This shows to me that you don't always have to believe the reviews of other persons. For my part I will order some new items very soon.
Thank you very much Ana (light in the box).

Beware of this site
December 24, 2022

I ordered some merchandise back on 12/13/2022 and received my payment confirmation receipt and I have not received my order yet. There is no one to call and it says to download their app to track your package. Even when I do that it's all blank when I click the track package link. No history of my order is shown or anything but I have my receipt of $144 where I paid for it. Please do not shop online at this site.

Dodgy company
December 23, 2022

Dodgy company. All the positive reviews are from 'invited' customers which means they've been paid to leave them!
Paid for item weeks ago and heard nothing. Claimed if get it in 5 days. They've zero customer service. Only a frequently asked questions section that's useless.
Don't gamble your money. Use a reputable company instead.

Taking forever
December 22, 2022

I ordered a shirt from this company December 10 and still have not received it and today's date is 12/22. If they went any faster, they would be going backwards. I would not recommend this company to anyone.

I placed the order on 12-14-2022, hoping for a Christmas delivery because their site said they process within 24 hours. It is now 12-21-2022 and it still hasn't shipped. Maybe I'll have the items for next Christmas!

Bad products
December 21, 2022

I ordered 2 shirts for my husband. Look nothing like the picture. Will cost more to send back. What a waste of money. I was really hesitant to order from here. I was right. So disappointed. And I wouldn't even give a star. But that is not an option. My proof of purchase ot my order number.

I ordered a pair of leggings two years ago, on May 1,2020, and here we are at the end of Dec. 2022, yet to receive them. Way to get a simple job done. By far the worst company I have wasted my money on. They basically stole my money when I got no product for it.

Better than expected!
December 20, 2022

The delivery took a long time and my goods were delivered in two packages (with a week's time difference). But the goods actually lived up to my expectations and were perfectly fine.
