A beautiful and fast website to order everything

Very long delivery time

Delivery incomplete

Returning delivery
--> very unclear which routing and after 3 emails finally clear
They actually do not want to deliver
--> many discount proposals
Return and then your money back actually total discouragement so now everything except customer
--> costs nl 50.00! Just about more than the value.
All in all, treated like anything but a customer at the door and at the end of the journey!
Good merchandise and reliable merchant. I love the humor and choices.
Finally Received my order.
Slow delivery system.
Item received is nice.
All good
I have ordered two tapestries. One was fine, the other was all wrong with the color. I ordered the one that is a copy of a medieval tapestry with a unicorn and a maid in costume. It is a very fameous tapestry over the whole world. I was thrilled (really) to see such a thing available to the mere phesants of the world. When i got it, instead of the maroon color that is on the picture on their website, it was a harsh color that was yellow orange. I ordered it to place in a room, where maroon was essential. I kept it because i thought it would work out elsewhere. I remember there was a qualified statement about color but i took a change. This is the second note so i know no one there has taken a look at maybe having their printers checking color accuracy so the whole purchase is very rewarding for anyone who buys one. Maybe someone could check to see if anyone saw my review sent maybe two weeks before this review. Thanks for checking and maybe checking to see that what is advertised on their website would be greatly improved.
My experience has been very positive! Fast delivery!
So far it's been good not crazy about the material on the hoodie I thought it would be like the same material of hoodies you buy in stores but not the arms are so long! But it is cute. The dragon mug is fantastic! Love it!
I am very satisfied with my order! I like the quality of the items of my order.
The order was exactly as I wanted it and all were correct size and fit perfectly. THEY arrived on time and in good shape love the soft material.
May I have to exchange for a larger size? Size recommended is a little snug.
How do I return an item please. I can't seem to find your return policy
As described and the girls love them. Makes collecting eggs much easier
Aside from one time, I am extremely happy with all of my purchases to date.
Dresses are all good quality, affordable, sizes are compliant with sizes table. Client service is fast and efficient
I like this kind of shirts i will buying more thank you
Good. Returns are challenging but... Overall good rating
I love the items I have ordered and received. Received compliments especially for the sweater
I received 3 items...i choosed XL as size 2 of them were fitting correctly but the third on is too large...
So not easy to buy online when you are not sure if it will fit... I don't know if i will take this chance anymore
Tracking updates were very helpful. Very satisfied with my experience.
Molto corretti nelle spedizioni e nel servizio offerto, forse la qualità dei materiale lascia un po a desiderare, ma certamente non si puo avere tutto a questi prezzi.
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.
