I got a beautifully made dress at a great price and it came in a timely fashion. My only complaint is that the underskirt was not as full as I would have liked it to be.

The is is my first time buying anything from a website that has a vast collection of merchandise from large number of sellers. The servicentire was great, delivery date is in accordance of the estimation. Clothing might be a bit off from pictures on the site but quality is good. Just looks a little different that's all. Definitely would buy again from LIB

Order an 8 camera system from them. They charged my account. Then asked for a photo ID and Copies of the CC'd. I told them no. To cancel my order. Which they did. But now they have 225.00 of my money.
I will change the rating as soon as I get my money back!

Dear Doug,

We are sorry for all the inconvenience. We already replied you the same on Ressellerratings.com. Please understand that we DO NOT ask for photos of your drivers licence or credit card or other photo ID to prove your identity for no reasons. We only do that when there is a problem occur during the process of your money transaction. The reasons can vary from customer to customer. For example, some times there are fraud orders, in order to make sure that it's not someone else purchasing items using your account, we have to ask for payment identity. It is for your own good. If you would not like to offer the identity, we are not supposed to send your order. Your understanding will be much appreciated. And for your order, we checked just now, we have already finished the refund, please check your account. If you have any other further concerns, please contact our customer service people, they will help you to solve all your problems!

Thanks for shopping with us!

Sincerely,
Lightinthebox

Ordered my wedding dress, two bridesmaids dresses, and 3 evening bags from LightIntheBox.com. Fabrics and construction of everything was exceptional. Delivery was quick and products were well packaged. Only complaint was that we ordered by size rather than by measurements. One of the BM dresses didn't fit. I inquired about returning it, which wasn't an option (but I assumed that based on the return policy posted on their website). However was offered a partial refund so that alterations could be done to the dress. Very quick to reply to my concerns and quickly resolved the issue. Would recommend this site to others!
