Gearbest Reviews Summary

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.

Don't buy from GEARBEST
FAKE - FAKE - FAKE
And I believed!
I bought a tablet, a birthday gift for my little daughter on 13.06.
In FAKE Track. Number: "three weeks at some depot..."
I write for 2 weeks in a customer service and live chat and still nothing. Every time I have robotic answers. I checked in our couriers and customs - nothing, the shipment is stuck somewhere in Germany.
I get answers - "We will check this case for 2-3 days" And this correspondence is from 2 weeks.
Tomorrow is the birthday, tablet - NO, gift - NO
Item was reduced in promotion - with refund can't buy a new one! This is a terrible situation!
Fake order from Fake promotion!
I will leave a negative feedback everywhere, and I will open the cases
Zugzwang!

I began shopping in Gearbest, in 2016, purchasing small and cheap items, to test the store's shipping times, quality in items and support from the staff. After 2 years and more than 30 orders made, (from phones, tablets, tools, batterys, ecigs, etc) i can surely say this is one of the best if not THE BEST online shop.
Everything arrives on time, except of course on Chinese holidays, and those massive discount days. Even then, with a quick ticket, the staff is very helpfull, and even refunds part of the value to compensate the extra time you waited for the items.
Never did i had a problem that wasn't quickly resolved by the support team.
This, the variety of items and of course their great prices, makes me come back again and again, chosing this site when ever i need something.

Excellent online store!
July 6, 2018

Here I found great products that I could not find in other stores. By the way, the prices here are much lower, and there is an excellent bonus program and discounts. Recently I bought a product (here is my order number: **************800), paid through WebMoney, unexpectedly the package arrived very quickly!... that I have not seen in other online stores!
My friend, despite the fact that he lives in the USA, was very surprised and pleasantly shocked by my recall (he had not even heard of the online store GearBest), now he also makes purchases here!
I'm very happy. I will continue to buy and recommend this store!

I have Bought the ILife V7s Robot from GearBest, more than 4 months ago.
The item I received was faulty - stacked all time with no reason.
They promised the give my money back after I'll send them the item (forcing me to pay for the delivering).
I have sent the item to the address they asked me in Spain already almost 2 months ago, and now they wrote me they cannot take it out from the custom office, asking me to send it to a new address in China!
This is only a brief of the issue - They are just delaying the repayment with strange new excuses from time to time.

It also seemed like they have blocked for me the option to write a review in they website.

Beware and get away from them!

Great customer Experience
July 5, 2018

Considering the shopping sites that are available these days and all the advantages of each one, GearBest stands out by a set of differentiating factors.
1) It has a complete product catalog;
2) Always has the latest news, communicating them in a timely manner to your customers;
3) Has a true customer service. They worry about customer satisfaction and more than that, when expectations are not met, they can in a sympathetic way through offers or discounts compensate the customer.

It is truly a site, where distant purchases are assured by a team that although we do not see it, we know it is there and on our side.

First, sorry for my english:)

Bought several xiaomi redmi note 4 on this website. Prices was about 130$ depending on the offers and reductions.
One of them won't turn on after 4 months.

I describe the problem to the after-sale services. Send the phone back to Spain for repair.

After 2 months, they told me that the phone cannot be repaired and they offer me 50$ cash back!

At this moment, i'm trying to negociate because i thing they can repaire it but they won't...

EDIT: after this message, Gearbest reimburse me a part of the total cost of the phone. You just have to know that the garantee have a 4 months limit... After that they propose half of the price in cash back...

Gearbest.com le meilleur magasin en ligne via Application mobile. Placer ma commande a été facile grâce à la nouvelle mise à jour GearBest App. Payer ma commande par carte Visa était aussi rapide que d'acheter localement. Le suivi de ma commande était plus détaillé qu'auparavant. Les offres sont très intéressantes et la qualité est au rendez-vous.
