I love this site for what i like to buy over the internet and never had any problems with delivery or any exchange as yet
I shop a lot in china stores. But light in the box is just horrible
The clothing i order are the wrong colors.
One time i order a clock and it looks nothing like in the description and the pictures on the website. Plasic not metal and way smaller
I made a comment about it on the website. 1 out 5 stars and it got removed (censorship)
It already says how sad.
Dont get fooled save yourself some problems and money.
Superfast delivery, good quality goods and prompt, concise communication. Not what i expected at all...
No issues with using this site. Response time to queries was within hours even though I am in Australia. Would recommend this site, quality products.
Was not advised of custom charges, however I complained and light in the box paid half, when the dress arrived a hook was missing and there was some trailing threads, I was offered a ful refund to return, repair with a voucher to use on the site or to repair the dress myself and have a partial (substantial) refund. The dress is beautiful and fits perfectly, I paid a few pounds extra to have it made to measure and it was well worth it. I have to admit the customer service has been excellent, quick responses and quick resolutions, could not have been more helpful. The dress is fantastic, well made, gorgeous and good quality, I love it! I would definitely buy from them again!
O comunicare buna cu departamentul care se ocupa de dialogul cu clientii, micile ''atentii''[discounturi, mici darurti, reduceri de taxe, etc]sunt foarte incurajatoare.Imi place sa cumpar produse de la aceasta companie.
It was a pleasant experience, fast customer service and the product was awesome and perfect. I will shop with LightInTheBox again and again.

Here is one of great items I ordered from LightInTheBox:
New Pro 120 Full Colors Neutral Eye Shadow Eyeshadow Palette Makeup Cosmetics Set 5876
This item is absolutely gorgeous! A palette like this will make every woman to feel happy. A perfect blend of mattes and shimmers, so many wonderful colors to choose from.
It was well packaged and nothing was broken when the palette arrived. I am very satisfied!
I love my ring from Light In The Box. I purchased it for only 34 cents! It was a little small but I wear it comfortably as a pinky ring. I also love the retro look about it.
Have great items and quick delivery, purchased several items from Light in the box and always a pleasure to deal with. Highly recommend this site!
Great products as always very fast delivery thank you
I really like this website www.lightinthebox.com. It has lots of items and variety. The policies are good and they really taking good care of their customers. I strongly recommend it to my friends.
I have always had very good customer service. Responses are quick and to the point. Would recommend LightInTheBox to every one.
Excellent product, as described. Highly recommend.
Very good phone looking at its price. So far so good. Thank you lightinthebox
Great stuff and huge diversity on the site and the service is brilliant.
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.
