Surprisingly Good
May 12, 2016

I am always skeptical of any Chinese website selling very low-cost products. This site has so far been the exception. They have very hard-to-find products that are unique, inexpensive, yet good quality. You rarely get all three and even more rare - GOOD QUALITY. Highly recommend this site.

O sie é confiável, as roupas tem boa qualidade. Cuidado com os tamanhos, que são menores. Compro sempre um número a mais. Minha queixa é a demora de chegar.

Great online store
May 12, 2016

I've been shopping from LightInTheBox for about 2 years now, and I think they have a great customer service, great prices and most of all great items to buy. I am very satisfied shopping from it because my items always arrive in time and if something goes wrong, customer service is always so helpfull and they take care of everything until I'm satisfied with everything.

Thank you.

I wrote them three times explaining that their so called "tracking" doesn't track anything. A month ago it shows the shipment arriving in San Francisco, and then... nothing. They always respond in broken English saying please check the tracking. Two months total and the items never arrived. Reported it as not arriving, no response. Reversing credit card charges now. What a pain!

Got my money back! Yeah!

Love this site!
May 12, 2016

I've ordered various items from "LightinTheBox", and honestly, I love this site.
They are great.
I ordered a Tub filler, a kitchen faucet, 2 bathroom faucets, a gorgeous chandelier and they all surpased my expectations. The items are and look amazing. Very good quality.
The clothing is hit or miss. If you chose a seller that has a great rating with many purchases, you are good.
Just beware of the duty and shipping charges will be added. However, the cost of the items are so reasonable that even with paying the duty and shipping, you're way ahead.
I absolutely love this site and could shop everyday :)

Since 2 months, I am waiting for a refund on my money for a shipment I have not received. When ordering I specifically asked and PAID for the express delivery which was supposed to take 2-4 days. Since during this time, the shipment was still not received I cancelled the order and have still not received my money back. Customer service keeps closing the tickets online which are the only way for a customer to get in touch with their service representatives. I am not getting any response, nor my money back. Completely unacceptable and terrible customer service!

Sou cliente há 8 anos e as compras correram sempre bem. A descrição dos artigos corresponde à realidade, o tempo de transporte é cumprido. Já comprei baterias de portatil, candeeiro de tecto, facas de cerámica, entre outros. Pode haver custos de alfandega, usem o seguro de alfandega em aparelhos electronicos.

Light in the Box Customer Service and Products Rock!
I want people to know, behind all the excitement there is people at Customer Service in the Light in the Box company who make all humanly possible to have customers happy. They do all what they can, they give me the impression the company is their family and present themselves as ambassadors before the world. I want to particularly thank REBECCA who seems posted at the China office. She was the highest expression of Customer Service. I will recommend Light in the Box to family and friends because of her and because of most of products you sell. Thank you! Paul
