On Sitejabber, businesses may not offer incentives or pay to remove reviews. Learn more about our Review Guidelines.
The company's reputation is significantly marred by widespread customer dissatisfaction, primarily stemming from persistent issues with order fulfillment, delays, and inadequate customer support. Many customers report difficulties in receiving refunds, with some waiting over a year without resolution. While a minority of reviews highlight positive experiences regarding product quality and timely delivery, these instances are overshadowed by the overwhelming negative feedback. Overall, the sentiment reflects a lack of reliability and transparency, leading to a recommendation for potential buyers to exercise caution when considering purchases from this company.

I bought a phone three months ago and since it has never been delivered so they offered me 50,70 or 75$ and when I insisted to get my phone and not a poor part of my cash back they told me it was back ordered. I've given then the link to their product and they asked me 70$ to get it... I'm getting my money back through PayPal. Never trust them and always use PayPal as a guarantee as they don't respect the law and think they are not liable until your goods are delivered.
Edit: after opening a dispute through PayPal I finally managed to get my money back

Gearbest has an incredible selection of many products! This is my first time in GearBest and i will recommend to my friends too! I was a little scared with the online shoping but with GearBest the shiping was all good and great pricing at products too!
I really like the site. The customer service responds fast and seems better than other similar sites. The products there are of expected quality and price is really good.
Communication is at a high level. Shipment received very well packaged. I live in Portugal
I have bought more ten 10 items, all came at time without any problem so far!
Great prices!
A site with a wide variety of products. All of my orders arrived on time and in good condition. I recommend the Gearbest.
I've been shopping for many years on Gearbest. Gearbest selling for very good prices and the excellent shipping methods. Shipping are free of any taxes if you buying with a higher price.
Discounts are often, so you can save lot a of money for your order.
Order support is quickly and they help you with everything you need.
I bought so much from Gearbest from cables to mobile phones and I'm very satisfied! Recommending.
I have ordered from gearbest on two occasion and have not been disappointed. Their customer service is exceptional.
GearBest is the best site I've ever come across to buy products, incredible deals, almost endless product variety, incredible service, products always arrive without any damage, I love the GearBest.
The FONMOR gents leather briefcase is as advertised in terms of dimensions and it is made of chemically treated leather (still stinks and unusable after days of 'venting').
However, the leather sections are different colours and textures/finish. The handles and strap are made from cheap vinyl cloth. The zippers are fine but the inner lining is stiff and fragile. You get what you pay for. It was 28,45 euro + P&P (surface shipping).
The order was placed 9 Nov and it arrived 3 Dec in Germany. The packaging has permanently damaged the product; the leather is stretched and distorted as it was folded in an envelope for one month in transit.

Very satisfied with this purchase, even though it was of little value, he arrived at my house very soon and in excellent condition. The product also complies with everything promised, fast data transfer and fully consistent with USB 3.0, very satisfied with this purchase
I made a lot of orders with Gearbeast and most of them went great.
They actually offer waranty for products you order, which is rare for Chinese retailers. One of my orders was refunded almost a year later, when i sent them defective item back.
Prices are good, especially if you use coupons.

It was mid-November 2015 when I surfed the network to discover the Gearbest portal. It took very little to make me fill the cart with various electronic products and today I continue to buy non-stop. Why? Well, very simple: pre and post-sale assistance, the best prices on the market. I recommend it to everybody!
Italiano:
Era metà novembre del 2015 quando navigando in rete scoprii il portale di Gearbest. Bastò poco per farmi riempire il carrello con svariati prodotti di elettronica e ad oggi continuo ad acquistare ininterrottamente. Perchè? Bè, molto semplice: assistenza pre e postvendita, i migliori prezzi sul mercato. Lo consiglio a tutti!
The site is intuitive and easy to use. The products are good and are sold at an excellent price. A minor problem is the shipping time a bit long. Recommended
I bought a phone
I liked this phone and its price
It was a little late to prepare the package but I contacted the support and they did everything to satisfy me
It was a very good experience
Thank you gearbest
Products I've purchased from Gearbest are of good quality as it was mentioned on the product description and they're generally affordable. They also have good customer care services which is priority for me
Várias camisolas encomendadas ao mesmo tempo, chegaram todas com os tamanhos correctos, todas de boa qualidade e sem qualquer defeito.
A encomenda chegou rápido, cerca de 15 dias.
After 2 years this shop became very bad, don't dispatch orders after 10 days and asked to wait 1! Month. They don't respect their customer.

Answer: Some people will get their products, some will not. Some will get what they expected and some will not. I got my products but one was not what they promised and one broke after a few seconds of use. They still continue to use wrong information on their website even though they admitted to me that it is not correct. I wrote a review on their web site about the product that broke after a few seconds of use and they blocked it so it still looks like the product only has positive reviews. You can see pictures and read more on my own web site that I created for telling my experience about GearBest: http://GearBestreview.azurewebsites.net
Answer: Dont really matter mate, regardless, what they do if does not arrive, they will not refund, they offer to resend at your cost. Then you do Paypal dispute, they refuse to refund unless you close the case, if you close the case, Paypal will not help. In my circumstances Paypal decided in my favour and refunded, but dragged on, avoid this company in future, Bangood better
Answer: Dear Iain, you can submit a ticket here: http://support.gearbest.com/ Our colleague will reply you in 24 hours! We are sorry that the live chart is some buzy, as many people contact over the world. So that may need customers to wait a little linger for their turn. Gearbest.com
Answer: Yes Adam, did you pay with PayPal? If Then contact PayPal and claim your money back and stat away from gearbest, they lied to me and now i an trying to get my 100 dollars back. There is a reason that they are NOT on eBay... So my advice to everyone is to stay far away from this socalled Company... No mail, no adress, no phone?
Answer: They are legit, just ridiculously slow in shipping. I waited 1.5 months for my "rush" order. It was shipped out in multiple pacakges and arrived at different times.
Answer: Same here, after 3months of waiting for my order and many conversations in an email ticket which went on for 1month they promised me to refund me via paypal. No refund and nothing heard from them since almost 2weeks. Keep writing here people, I hope lotz of people read it and gearbest goes bankrupt very soon
Answer: You can try the Better Business Bureau like I did however they never responded to them either, they did respond to the tickets I opened up on their site but the replies weren't of much use and not very helpful.
Answer: I wouldn't. It's been three months and I still don't have my order and their customer service is terrible. They just keep telling tryouts to wait longer.
Answer: I would advise you to stear clear. If the site does not let you order with free shipping then you have dodged a bullet. I got free shipping but the product was damaged an only fit for resting your cup on they offered a refund less the first shipping that was ment to be free or a replacement. As it cost 25 pounds to send back to resolve the matter I chose to except the replacement it came and was just as bad a tablet as the first. Take my advice and run a mile. Hope this gives you an idea what the company is like. Run run run a mile mate.
