It has taken a bit of time to figure out on line shopping, but now that I have it pretty much figured out Light In the Box has been a wonderful source for shopping

This company has NO phone contact at all. You have to go through A LOT OF HOOPS just to contact them.
My package was stated to be delivered already, and has not arrived. I had to contact the delivery agent, then, found out the package is still in CHINA!
WORST POSSIBLE SERVICE FROM A COMPANY YOU CANNOT CONTACT

Good quality tunic. It is not too short nor too long and I feel dressed up in it. Worn with leggings or pants, it fits the bill perfectly.

I will never buy anything from your company again since your return policy is erroneous. You failed to say that if you return something you have to mail in cack to China in 7 days to get a return. I bought a sweater for $49 and it will cost me $30 postage to send it back. In addition, it is impossible to communicate with anyone to find the address to send it to. I plan on telling all my friends and family what a sham this company is. Too bad because you go have some nice clothes. You shot yourself in the foot.

My Grandson just loves these. The directions didn't show up until Day 3 and are for all of the figures, which he mostly knew how to put together, he's 7. He is really having a lot of fun with them!

Great Selection and Great Prices!
December 20, 2023
Updated review

I needed a theme for Santa's gifts to my family, and LightInTheBox had the perfect selections, so no one got the same gift, but the design was related. And the shipping was really fast. Got everything I needed and wanted way before Christmas. Thank you so very much! I highly recommend LightInTheBox!

I found out about LightInTheBox by looking for pictures on Pinterest, and one of their items caught my eye. Went to their website, ordered the item, and it was shipped and received quickly. Yes, the materials are rather thin, but for summer wear this was perfect. I will be shopping some of their departments too. Highly recommend!

Pas satsfaite du tout
December 20, 2023

Je ne suis pas d'accord avec cette boutique, car elle me doit 4 prélévements, de 44e01 qui soit disant sont remboursées alors que sur le compte de ma banque, je vois 4 fois 44e01, dans mes prélévements, mais, ma banque, quand il y a un remboursemment ou plusieurs, ces derniers, sont en couleurs vert, et pour l'instant ce n'est pas le cas, et celà dure depuis, le 03/12/2023, cordialement.

Awful
December 20, 2023

The shirt is not even remotely close to how it looks in the picture. The picture shows it longer and with sparkles on the wine glass and it calls it a t shirt. The material, the size and the description are terrible. I will never ever order again from light in the box
