Absolutely awful
July 28, 2014

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.

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!

I have always had positive experience in my transactions with lightinthe box organization, and this particular case was no exception. Item purchased was great in terms of price and quality. Customer service was excellent in terms of the quality of communication and product support. The organization also acted responsibly in helping to facilitate the resolution of some issues that arose with respect to the shipping agent. Overall my experience was quite positive.

I am trying to buy three pairs of shoes but the site won't let me register or sign in when it tells me I already have an account. When I ask for a new password nothing comes to me. I wish I could buy these shoes after trawling the web & found just what I was looking for all on he same sie. Very disappointed!

Hi Lynda,

We are sorry for all the inconvenience. For your problem, it may be just some system issues. We might upgrade our system at that point. We kindly suggest that you can try another time.

Thanks for your patience.

LightInTheBox is a fantastic, unique shopping experience. You receive good quality items for a good price and free shipping if you are in no hurry. I've never had to return a single item, shipping is great and so is the customer service. You can get items which you can't get on the high street, for such a low price, I love it and can't get enough. Totally FABULOUS!
