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.

So far, my experience with Gearbest is the best.
With the purchases of greater value, both the shipping methods and the speed with which the products are sent are remarkable.
I've bought a mobile, it arrived very early and with great conditions. Everything worked well and I am very pleased.
Absolutely love this store, Shipping is fast, Prices are great and if you need to ask something resolution center is responsive.
When first time i got on Gearbest, i will surprised that bonus program give real money not just a coupon. I found what i looking for only here and plus over all with great "flash sale" deal. When i registered i got bonus points for simple actions. Then i ordered what i want and spended bonuses for fast and most safety delivering packege. I living in Russia and my package tracked on all the way and i got it in short time. I got original good quality product. Many thanks Gearbest.com!
This was my first order with Gearbest and it turns out to be one of the best decision!
Was bit reluctant at first since i haven't done it before - ordering from overseas.
Was tracking the shipment - well there was over excitement as have seen reviews of very delayed delivery, customs hold, customs charging more than price of product, penalties and other bad experiences.
Was in touch with GB CS Team at various stages of purchase order, & Shipping and their feedback was excellent and assuring best service from there part
But Things went well and received product in good condition and working pretty awesome!
Pretty happy with the purchase decision and am really loving it!
Gearbest et moi sa fait très longtemps
Un très bon partenaire chinois très sérieux je n ai jamais été déçus
Je recommande très fortement GEARBEST pour tout vos achat rapport qualité prix imbattable
I get my vaping gear from this store.
They sell authentic products for fairly low prices. Usually their prices are unbeatable. Shipping is fast. I usually choose PostNL shipping method and did never regret. I didn't have much interaction with customer service, but they reply fast and in a nice manner. The only thing that I don't like in gearbest, coupons. Almost everything in their website is on sale. I mean, you have a 8% sale coupon and the thing you want to buy is already on 25% sale. The price is fairly low, but this sale thing makes the coupons useless. Anyways, I'm happy with their prices.
In general, a reliable shop with low prices.
Bought a Xiaomi Redmi Note 4, was slightly worried as it was a new site I'd not used before. I did my research and placed my order. Had to wait bit longer than normal for delivery but had no problems and the phone is great. Have ordered another phone.
On the website GearBest I bought the knife Ganzo G740.
In my opinion, the deal was excellent - accurate product description on the website (which has allowed me to make the right choice), clear work shop at the stage of ordering and tracking the parcel until the post office.
I am very pleased with the purchase and communication with the store.
Constantly I make purchases in this shop, there are no problems ever!
Fast shipping, good packaging, best price!
Fraud company that steals your money
Fraud company that steals your money. Do not waste your time.
Doesn't have anything in Stock, order takes ages and if they ever complete your order they will try to get it send back so they can keep the item and not refund you.
Address was wrong on all my orders (They didn't put in a house number and no address owner), even after contacting them over 5 times about it. They told me it was changed to the right address and showed me proof (this enforces above statement, they know its the wrong address they want it to be the wrong address so they can keep the item and your money)
YOU CANNOT MANUALLY CANCEL ORDERS EVEN IF THEY DO NOT HAVE THE ITEM, FRAUD!
Support will NOT CANCEL YOUR ORDER!, you have to open a ticket and wait "2" days but you will never get an answer on this ticket!
When you open a dispute with PayPal they will not answer and in live chat they will tell you they cant refund because of the dispute (that's the one thing you can do when there is a dispute open you fraud!)
Remember you cant cancel your order manually and it takes 3 days before you can claim a dispute so in that time the item will magically appear and ship out on the same day with a tracking number.
PayPal will then refuse to repay you because the item was shipped out with a fake tracking number case closed.
You are then asked by PayPal to send back the item You are never going to receive thus losing the case.
400 Euro lost, nothing of 3 orders received.
Be warned!
Very fast shipping to europe, just needs a few days to arrive. The chipping costs are low, even express is cheap. Perfect quality of my products, everything is authentic and manufacturers packaging. When having an issue with yout product, refund is very quick and often you gett full refund by GB without having them in guilty. Thanks!
On my first purchase, the experience with the gearbest could not have been better. Besides the whole site being translated into Portuguese, the prices are really excellent and I still had the facility to make a purchase in installments.
We Brazilians, we know the gearbest through people who have been customers and recommended. To this day I have not met a person who did not recommend the online store.
I hope the relationship with the gearbest is always the best it can be.
Gearbest,
Eu estou grato de comprar com você, seus produtos são de excelente qualidade, entrega dentro do prazo estimado. Você deve ser parabenizado.
The shopping experience was excellent. I have ordered various products from the website, all the product came in a perfect condition. The price the quality the service all are ultimate.
Ordered a mechanical keyboard and a mouse pad, both products are still perfectly working and they are so good and cheap
The support were very kind with me
Got a phone and a mouse from Gearbest. Spent around $170 for both.
The items came right as expected. Their support and after-sale services were pretty good when I needed too, providing fast replies from both tickets and Facebook chat.
Gerarbest is a great website for international shopping.
Excellent customer support.
1 year warranty of a product.
Very customer friendly website.
Order No.: W**************
Founded this web store >year ago. Prices are usually in a middle comparing to big stores like ali, but gearbest periodically has flash sales which, if you catch them, could give you almost lowest prices in a web. That's really tricky, but not impossible:)
I'd already >10 orders there (W**************, W**************, W**************, etc.), for me clear picture of "where is my order" is very important, and Gear Best provide such option, either for free, or for little $:)
Another cool thing is their support team - always respond quickly, trying to do their best to make me (& I suppose not only me) happy & satisfied - as example, I've got problem with 1 item (~in a couple weeks from receiving) - item (hand clock) stopped charging & working completely. Messaged support, recorded a video for that problem, & received (again, a had a choice of money back & bonus points) bonus points for that amount + some extra, so I could order some better stuff on their web-site.
Packing - no comments here, all goods are packed respectively & carefully.
Delivery time - as promised during purchasing.
Shipping time - quick (usually couple of days), but if you need it quicker - there is a button to speed it up!).
Payment - quick & easy, I use Credit Card so there is no prob on this.
Bonuses - they use their own bonus system, so you're receiving some "points" for each order & you can spend them for discount of next order.
Overall - i'm very satisfied with this shop, with their post-sale services & support.
Price is important, but sometimes it's importance is lower then everything else I described - and, of course, catch discount moments to get low prices!
I didn't expect a such awesome shopping site! I'm really happy
Site are easy to use and the app too, linear, clear. Price are cheap, they also provide a fast shipping since they got also warehouse in Europe. Some time price can be 2-3 higher than averange but they provide always a good packaging and an awesome customers support. I order a lot and got no problems!
Esta fue mi primera compra en Gearbest.com y recibi la mejor atencion.
Cumplieron dentro del tiempo estimado con la entrega del producto.
La tienda tiene buenos precios y casi todos los dias ofrece descuentos.
Lo mejor de todo es la seguridad que ofrece al comprar.
Ademas Gearbest tiene en su catalogo productos de calidad.
En mi opinion Gearbest es la tienda por internet mas confiable que hay.
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.
