Recent Order
December 28, 2023

I ordered several items from different areas on app. All items were received as requested and before expected date. The clothing items were of good quality as always. I was very disappointed in the screen covers for cell phones however. For the most part, I was happy with the LITB items and will continue to shop on their site.

Garbage
December 28, 2023

Rip off. Poor quality, holes in fabric, sizing is terrible. Returned items 2 months ago to CHINA and still waiting on refund, less the $65.00 postage. There are better companies that do this in America. They do not stand behind their product.

Nice Quality, but...
December 28, 2023

The quality of the items were nice however the sizing chart was not as accurate as it should be. I had ordered a size large as I have always done for my wife, however the items arrived as an extra large although labeled as large. The chest size was at least 6" larger and the sleeves were 8" longer than indicated. My wife can not wear these at all, even if we rolled up the sleeves, which should not be required.

Very happy and great quality
December 28, 2023

This was the first article that I have ordered with LightIn TheBox and everything went great. Easy to order, very clearly what you order (with pictures and everything) en the quality is great. After this product I already ordered many more clothes en they all are great and I am sure that many more orders will follow. This order was a 'thin' sweatshirt with a Christmas print. Though it being 'thin' material it is very warm and I wear it very often.

JUNK MERCHANDISE
December 27, 2023

Bought 2 T-shirts for Xmas gift for my grandson. I ordered the biggest size available, which is actually 2 sizes larger than usual. What came is very much smaller, barely fits and extremely poor quality material. It is basically garbage and a waste of money. Merchandise came from China and that was not mentioned on their site.

Zero!
December 27, 2023

I wish there was a zero option because that's what they would get! I ordered a Christmas shirt, it's now 12/27 and still have not received the shirt… I got zero! And I ordered it on 12/6 with a guarantee Christmas delivery. DO NOT WAIST YOUR TIME OR MONEY, you will lose them both!

Coupons don't work properly

Thank you for leaving a comment. We apologize for the difficulties while trying to obtain the discount on the app.
The coupon code should be applied once proceeding to payment of your order. Please proceed to payment, and find that the discounts automatically at very last step when finalizing the payment.
Should you find any issue, feel free to contact to our customer service, we'll make sure this gets quickly sorted!

I've received 3 parcels in December. And all 3 are super nice and great quality as far as the boots goes. I can easily recommend to shop here. Of cause there was a bit of a wait in December, but that's understandable.

Scammed out of refund
December 27, 2023

Where is my 50% off refund? I am really running out of patience with you. I am ready to file charges with the police and report this as a theft of my money. I will start reviewing your horrific attitude towards your customers. Enough is enough. Keep stalling and I will be requesting my money back for all three of my orders totalling over $500. You are thieves, and possibly the worst company I have ever had the misfortune of dealing with. I want the money back TODAY. If you keep ignoring me, I will be forced to post this in your reviews, online and will contact the local media about this scam.

Somewhat Disatisfied
December 27, 2023

I have ordered many products and some were good but the clothing sizes were not. My last order was a disaster the sizes were all too small. I don't think I will be ordering much in clothing anymore. The sizes should be for Canadian sizes since the products are sold in Canada.

Apart from the shoes, the two dresses didn't look at all like the description photo on website!

I was quite excited to receive the packet… When I opened then saw those two dresses I could not trust my eyes they looked disgusting and terrible material to give a present to my grandchildren. I had to buy them some other dresses from High street shop and less price than I had purchased those two dresses!

I can never advise it a friend! Kindly, keep your offers I don't need anything from you online shop again!. Unfortunately! I always have bad experiences in ordering stuff from China.
