My daughter absolutely loved this costume. It fit her perfect.
Lightinthebox is a great e-shop. Has everything you want, items are good, shipping isn't very fast but deserves to wait. I really liked everything i got, thank you Light in the Box!
Very good buying experience and communication. The product arrived in a perfect condition and it was according to my expectations. I was quite satisfied from my order.
Items I have purchased have arrived very quickly and staff have been very helpful in resolving issues. Thank you!
The site is perfect, everything comes quickly, and we are pleased with it
S review on our site for reference: Whata hoot! I bought this wig to wear with my "Croods, Gran" costume. I was surprised at the quality of workmanship. It had a horrid odor when it arrived, but I hung it outside and the fresh air did it's thing! It also arrived quite quickly! Thanks!
Thank you so much for the sweater! It fits wonderfully and it arrived much sooner than I expected.
This is one bad-$#*! flashlight! Super bright, a nice feel to it, not heavy, but not cheap like those Wal-Mart LED flashlights, well worth the price, I recommend light in the box to all my friends, thanks guys!
Excellent service, well packaged and the phone case is well made and a steal at the price!
I started checking on items here, LIGHT IN THE BOX, a while back, I ordered a few to see what kind of quality, etc they had, I am very pleasantly surprised to find high quality items at very low prices, and the items arrive fairly quickly at very low shipping charges, I will continue to purchase from lightinthebox, I think you will really like shopping with them also.
Really impressed with the service and dresses from lightinthebox.com.
I've bought my bridesmaids from them and they have all arrived in good time.
The fabric is beautiful and the quality of the dress and sewing is brilliant.
Received my order for gifts for our upcoming wedding. Was really impressed with the speed in the delivery and the quality of the goods received for the price. Would use the company again and would have no problem in recommending the company.
Love this website when i order something from this its fast and good when guys sent me my order
I bought a MOCREO MOSOUND Bar Waterproof Portable Wireless Bluetooth Speaker from LightInTheBox recently.
It was bought to be taken on holiday to play in the room and by a private pool. It's been tested up until now around the house including the bathroom. It is light enough for you to take it anywhere and the sound you get for such a small device is good. Don't expect booming bass, but the sound quality is excellent. Crisp, clear and true. It is also great when I paired it to my iPhone. I can take calls on it too! I would recommend for anyone else looking for a small, light, water resistant bluetooth speaker.
The delivery was quick too. The postage was from China but was tracked and it arrived within a few days. Awesome service.
Absolutely awful. I ordered a quadcopter with camera. I gave up on it after 8 weeks of getting in contact with amazon And cancelled it. Truly PISSED OFF! Do NOT order from this company.
Goods were excellent, delivery arrived earlier than the expected dates, so far so good with my whole experience with light in the box
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.


Hi,
We apologize for all the inconvenience.
If you choose free super saver shipping, it may take 10-20 BUSINESS days which means it can take up to 40 days to deliver. Please note that the delivery time includes processing time and shipping time. And the delivery of the packages is influenced by many factors – especially countries’ customs. If the customer clearance takes a long time, it may cause the delay of package. Super saver shipping company doesn’t update shipping status on their website so the packages can be tracked hardly. Any questions concerning about your order, you can log in and submit a ticket to contact our customer service people for help. Here is the way how you can contact them: http://www.lightinthebox.com/knowledge-base/c1192/a2974.html
Thanks!
