Super schönes Kleid, Qualität und Preis-Leistungsverhältnis sind top.
First of all I could not find any way to actually send a message directly to this company but mostly I'm disappointed in these companies that will take your order and not even for fill it for a full week I think if a company can't turn around and order and ship it within a reasonable period of time they shouldn't be selling online it's a disservice
I ordered some dresses for 10.20 and 13.00 and i got a total of 9 dresses for 140 and that is with shipping! I noticed my usps was acting up so i couldnt follow my packge correctly and messaged customer serice! Soraia was awesome she contacted the shipping company which gave her the update and she let me know really fast! Super amazing and glad i had the chance to purchase from this company. It will be happening a lot thanks to their amazing prices!
They charge you more than the product value for shipping

I ordered a coat and chose the size based on the sizing chart on the website. The coat arrived quickly but was at least 2 sizes too small so wanted to return it. The cost to return the coat to China from Canada was $30+ meaning I'd recoup less than 50% of the purchase price. The other option was to keep it and get a 20% credit, which I chose to do but the credit is not applied to the card I used to purchase the coat instead it is applied as a credit to their store and then I have to go through another process to transfer the credit from them back to my card. Ridiculous to say the least. I will certainly never buy anything from them ever again and shame on me for not reading thevreturn policy more thoroughly before ordering.

Perfect transaction as always. Excellent support. Fast delivery. Very pleased.
Un "dos piezas" de bonito diseño. Cómodo y elegante para estar en casa...
Sugerencia: si el tejido fuera un poco mas denso, serÃa super-perfecto. Es un modelo muy bonito. Con un collar largo: excepcional...
I ordered a couple of T-shirts from this site. One arrived and the printing on it is so blurry I thought I needed to get my eyeglass prescription updated. No customer service contact, no phone number, and their chat line just stopped responding. 40 minutes and nothing. Do not buy from this company and spread the word that they are slimeballs.

I have been using LightInTheBox for about two years now and I have to say that I have never been disappointed. Their customer service is on top. I had a package delivered but I wasn't home and it has been returned to the shipper. I explained the situation to customer service and, although it wasn't in their policy, Amira Mostafa, got out of her way to help resolve my problem and made sure that the package would be re-shipped to me, with 0 costs added. I am so grateful for her and for her help! Thank you, again!
They send faulty goods then make you jump through hoops for nothing. Contact paypal and complain. Not good enough

We measured the size of the waste and no matter what you buy, they are all the same size and made for a malnourished Chinese teenager. My fiancée is 28 or 29 inch waist, 100lbs lighter than me and they barely fit her.

Hacer los pedidos es muy fácil y la entrega para mi fue rápida y cumplida, además de que la calidad del producto recibido es muy buena
I ordered an item 20 days before I needed it for an event, but it was still processing after 18 days. I cancelled the order without any problems and was given a full refund. I may order from Light in the Box again in the future, but not if I need the item within the same month.

L'article commandé correspond bien à la photo sur le site robe à ma taille parfait
The delivery of my ordered goods was quick enough. The quality of the goods was mainly low. The cheaper the price the lower the quality to expect, according to what I received.
Answer: Hello, I bought a few things and the quality was not very good and the sizing was totally wrong. I also bought a cellular charger and the battery inside was not soldered correctly. Lightinthebox has great price, but you pay for what you get, which isn't much. I have stopped buying from them.
Answer: Same problem... All thru email
Answer: We didn't buy a dress but the sizes are very small and the returns policy is a joke. I ended up losing money.
Answer: Dear Customer, we do recommend to you to refer to the size chart on each of the clothes first and then pick a suitable size for you.
Answer: Dear Customer, thank you for your inquiry. We're really sorry that our company made you feel nervous. Please kindly note that the total delivery time = processing time + shipping time. So for the arrival date of your package. It depends on the processing time of the product and the shipping method you choose. About the processing time, please kindly check the processing time on the product page. About the shipping time, you mentioned you paid extra fee for faster delivery. If the service you chose was expedited shipping, normally it takes 3-4 business days for shipping. If it's standard service, then 5-8 business days for shipping. If the order is delayed, we'll take full responsibility of that and you can contact us through tickets. You can refer to this guide to contact customer service: http://www.lightinthebox.com/knowledge-base/c1192/a2974.html
Answer: Will you send us your order number so that we can check?
Answer: Dont buy anything from this site. The picture is good, the object quality is garbage. You will be cheated and loose you money.
Answer: You NEVER get your money back... dont use them. I am amazed this company is allowed to trade, I am sure we have law's against this kind of practise.
Answer: Suggest not to buy. Might end up not receiving the order or received the wrong size and would be returning and paying shipping or requesting a refund or not receiving a refund at all. There's more legit company like Amazon where I bought the same one I ordered from Lightinabox, which I did not received. Sorry, but I would not trust this Co for anything. It' up to you to take the risk.
Answer: Count yourself lucky and DO NOT ORDER FROM THEM! You will be disappointed in the clothing and size from this company. All of the clothing I received was horrible quality and did not look at all like the photo they had online. They were just plain awful and the sizing was a joke. I received an XL shirt that would not fit a small person and a Med shirt (was supposed to be the same shirt as the XL) and the medium was literally larger than a 4x One was a terrible quality plain sweatshirt with a sticker posted on it and the other was a draping long gown like garment. I was appalled.would recommend finding a different company.
