I liked the t-shirts, the only one I disliked was the blouse, the qualty is not so good.
It took too long from the shopping to the delivery.
Do not buy from this company. I ordered a dress for a wedding. The dress got to my house one day before the wedding. No time for cleaning or steaming. The shoulders were droopy. It was a teal green instead of a wheatgrass green. I would have looked like a clown in that color. The tags are still on the dress. I ordered a standard size 8. When asked if I could return for a refund, they said it was a "tailored" dress and they could not accept it back. Since when is a size 8 tailored?
There is no one person to speak with - all communication is done through chat and email. Very frustrating.
The item I bought took too long + I ordered a medium size and it's as an extra large. Too difficult for me to go out to a post office and pay to get it back to China.

Sono molto soddisfatta di LightInTheBox. Il negozio offre molti prodotti diversi ed economici, alcuni dei quali davvero belli e creativi. La merce viene spedita anche in tempi relativamente brevi.
Ho avuto modo di acquistare diversi capi di abbigliamento e sono rimasta contenta arrivano nei giusti tempi e si presentano come in foto le misure corrispondono, direi che sono soddisfatta lo consiglio e sicuramente io continuerò ad acquistare
Nagyon örülök amiket kaptam. Megvagyok elégedve a termékkel és a szállitással.
Rasche Lieferung gute preise wie immer bin ich zufrieden werde gerne wieder etwas bestellen
Very nice product and fast delivery. I will buy again for sure.
Articles with perfect fit, received in time and in perfect condition. What to expect more?
I am so very upset with this company. Clothes are terrible and of very poor quality. Hard to get return info so I can return items. Took forever to get it. Order on March 3 got them March 24.
I want all my money back and return mailing fees. It cost $50 to get them. Ugly material, thin and too small, too long, weird fit!

The quality of the product wasnt good. Then they made the return process impossible. Wanted pictures, measurements, and answered slowly to stretch out the process. When they finally agreed, they only gave us option to return to their warehouse in China at our expense with tracking, a $70 cost. We reversed charges on card instead. I'll return if you give me a label to return or a US address. Policy obviously designed so they can discourage people from returning.

Ordered my wedding shoes, paid $130, followed their size guide, they delivered it so fast I was impressed but when I got my shoes, it wouldn't fit. I submitted a ticket for refund but they don't provide free shipping TO CHINA! Shipping fee to China from Canada would be the same amount as my shoes! Terrible refund policy light in the box!

Męskie Kurtka Sport Codzienny Jesień Regularny Płaszcz Kołnierz stawiany Luźna Keep Warm Oddychający Sportowy Elegancja Kurtki Długi rękaw Jednokolorowe Haft Niebieski Khaki Zieleń wojskowa #*******
Co do czasu przesyłki żadnych zastrzeżeń
Jakość wykonania bez zarzutu
Kurtka raczej na cieplejsze dni
Ogólne wrażenie pozytywne
Minus to rozmiar, brałem i tak z lekką tolerancją ale to za mało, rękawy o dwa centymetry przykrótkie
Ogólnie POLECAM tylko uważnie z numeracją, radzę brać dwa rozmiary większe /no chyba że ja miałem pecha/.
I ordered a dress. The dress was not true to size. It was tight in the back, and extremely large in the bust area. The material of the jacket was cheaply made. When I asked about the return policy, they gave me the run around, from sending them pictures and ending with they cannot return made to order items. In my order, there was never a mention that I ordered a made for order dress.

Das sind wirklich sehr auffällig schicke Sommerstiefel.
Preis/leistungsverhätnis stimmt.
Für die Preise bei lihgtinthebox muss man eben in Kauf nehmen, dass
Der Versand etwas länger dauert.
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.
