Thank you for your service. The blazer fits perfectly! The delivery was not taking so long and the quality of clothes is excellent!
I love light in the box and have been very happy with everything I have ordered
I AM VERY SATISFIED WITH THIS ITEM. LIGHT IN THE BOX IS ONE OF THE BEST!
Lightinthebox.com is a good way to shop
Cheap items. As long as you stick to a reputable seller. lightinthebox.com insurance policy makes it a safe way to shop. When im looking for a specialty item, this is the place to go.
Well, i like this online store. There communication is very good and fast response.
Delivery is as promised. Fast and good. Always get quality items. Recommend to anyone as a trusted online store. After sale service is very good.
I have ordered many times the last year from lightinthebox.com... I am very pleased from the quality of the shoes and the skirt I lately ordered is also fantastic! Thank you... keep have low price, but the best quality..
Lightinthbox is a SCAM! We ordered shoes and a dress. They delivered after 2 weeks, but the quality is the worst. So we wanted to returned the items. Now the problems starts. May 1st I write the request for a refund due to lack of quality. All the answers is standard answers avoiding to give me a clear reply whether or not I can return the items. I do not think they have real persons in the customer service. However I keep trying to get my money now since April 29th. DO NOT BUY FROM LIGHTINTHEBOX. Ordernumber: **************
Great site i must say. And another interesting thing about this site is that your credit card is safe with them... the security check is superp! A stolen credit card can never be used on this site and i aplaud them for that.
Ordered and received a hand painted oil painting.
The quality of painting is extremely poor. The picture on the website is very deceiving.
Wish we read the reviews before purchasing.

Today I received the A-line strapless wedding dress that I ordered from Light In The Box just last weekend. After reading some of the other reviews on here, I'll admit, I was a little nervous. The dress came way faster than expected. There were shipping and customs expenses, but that's to be expected when ordering from across the border. Anytime you order online, be prepared to pay a decent amount to customs, the government loves their taxes ;).
As for the dress... I am incredibly impressed. It is very well made, and is almost identical to the picture, the detail that has gone into it is fabulous and it fits great, despite the fact that I just ordered a generic size. The price, even after shipping and customs, was far less than I would have paid in any dress store. Altogether the originally marked $127 came to approximately $220 after all the charges. This dress could easily be sold at a local store for $800 or more. Well done Light In The Box!
I bought wooden magnet with reasonable price and good quality. Perfect gift to every kids in birthday party.
Customize Performance Dance Shoes Satin Upper Latin Shoes for Women #*******: Well made, comfortable, enough padding in the sole of the shoe. Am very happy with this purchase and will order these again.

Excellent product, fast delivery. I ordered 6 Bridesmaid dresses and a shawl. All are great
I had the best experience ever. From their great customer service to delivery and even pacaging, it was awesome. I recommend them anytime, any day
Most reliable of them all, 7 stars should be more appropriate.
Very interesting site, lots of products, good prices
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.
