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.

I MADE AN ORDER THAT WAS SUPPOSE TO BE 1 WEEK FOR DELIVERY ON THEIR PROMOTION. THEN THEY TELL ME WHEN I INQUIRE VIA MESSENGER THAT IT IS BACK ORDERED 2-3 WEEKS AND THEY COULD REFUND OR WAIT. ( THIS IS THE DAY AFTER I ORDERED) I SAY REFUND AND THEY SAY NO SORRY CANT DO THAT IT SHIPPED... WITH IN 1 HOUR OF BEING ASKED IF I WANT A REFUND. NOW THEY REFUNDED THE $2 FLASHLIGHT THEY SOLD ME NOT IN THE FORM OF CASH BUT IN SOME POINTS SYSTEM IN THEIR WEBSITE! THIS IS ILLEGAL. I'M REPORTING THEM AND DISPUTING WITH MY BANK! SCAM CHINESE COMPANY BE WARE! SUBMITTING THIS TO POST OFFICE FOR MAIL FRAUD COMPLAINT!

Excellent
July 31, 2017

I buy in this store for about a year. The product fully corresponds to the description, the quality is at the highest level. I would especially like to note the support service, which worries about the buyer being satisfied with the order, quickly and laconically answers all the related questions. Another big plus is fast delivery (up to 14 days in Ukraine). Excellent replacement for Ali

Great experience
July 30, 2017

Gearbest is my favorite electronics purchase site. They have a huge choice not only of electronics, but everything from ordinary tools to lipsticks and even clothes, all you can do to find them at very affordable prices. The site is very easy to use and with just two clicks you can buy everything you want. Reviews that customers write are very authentic to the product you buy, so I am impressed with this impression because they never deviated from the truth, so that every product I bought carefully I checked and very easily decided for him. Site support is very kind and quick, at any time it can help you if you have a problem with some of their products. It happened that I had a couple of times confusion about some things, but people from support quickly came to my senses and we easily solved it. Delivery is very fast, most things have a free delivery so I'm overwhelmed. The most important thing I did not mention is that prices are more than correct, and even very cheap, yet the quality is excellent again. So, this site is for me number 1 compared to other shopping sites.

I made several purchases there. There is always the opportunity to choose a carrier. Send orders very quickly. One of the orders was caused by the problem with the size of the clothes. The issue was solved by customer support in one day. Completely returned the money. Well done!

The Best Online Store

I have made many orders from GearBest and the postage speed and competitive prices is what keeps me shopping there. I have found their site very easy to navigate and it has been very simple to compile and pay for my orders, I have recommended the site to many people as I am confident their experience will be as good as mine. Their customer service is great, always get a response no matter what questions I have.

I Purchased a mi5s from gear best. The phone arrived with no plastic covers on the phone it also looked used. The phone itself kept giving me warnings and errors of over heating and randomly turning itself of their was also a buzzig whilst charging. The phone battery gave out and caused the front screen to come loose and acid from inside the battery to pose out the bottom. After contactig gear beat about their warranty I was told the following. That it was a user error. So basically I must of shoved a screwdriver into the battery hand caused the burns on my arms and hands myself? Appalonv service even worse after care. Obviously are not decent standards item so they are selling. After purchase they also wanted me to send a form of id and a photocopy of my bank card front and back. I would avoid. Phone Is barely a few months old. They offered me 4 US dollars points worth of compensation.

I love GearBest, I frequently visit the site thanks to their newsletter with great promotions and their ads with cool finds, I've purchased a few fidget toys and headphones there at incredible prices, and I'm currently considering purchasing my next smartphone through GearBest as they usually have really nice flash sales and promotions.

I also like how they have all kinds of rewards and benefits for users, such as GB points which are rewarded by any basic use such as making purchases, subscribing to their newsletter, filling up your profile or leaving reviews, things I'd normally do anyways, but I get credits here, that's awesome. I know they have some other reward programs that I'm eager to try as well.

This is one of the best sites for buying cheap equipment and other various accessories. Basically I buy vapes there, because they sell to me 2 times cheaper than in my city. I also bought a smart watch there. If something goes wrong, the support service will answer any of your questions. A couple of times my goods were lost at the post office, but the site generously sent it again or return the value. And the bonus system of discounts motivates to buy more and more

Долго ждал выхода смартфона Oukitel k ******* pro. Как только появилась возможность предзаказа встал выбор магазина. Я выбрал интернет- магазин Gear Best. Это был мой первый опыт приобретения товара в зарубежном интернет-магазине. Регистрацию я прошел быстро. Заказ товара не вызвал сложностей, так как на сайте Gear Best все просто и доступно. Получил трек номер и отслеживал посылку ежедневно. Почта Сингапура и почта России работают быстро и в течении 26 дней посылка прибыла ко мне. Упаковка и коробка смартфона были в порядке. Внутри коробки все было согласно информации на сайте магазина. Смартфон работает и доставляет мне удовольствие. Огромное спасибо работникам магазина из КНР, это честные и ответственные люди.

I have made purchases in Gearbest many times and have only a positive experience.
I have bought an LiitoKala Lii - 100 Smart Universal Battery Charger.
My order was delivered quickly, shipping to Germany took about 2 weeks. The items and packaging were not damaged. To the Positive, I can also include various options for delivery (including free delivery) and payment (including PayPal) I would recommend.
