Athletic wear
September 16, 2023

I purchased 3 dresses from Light in the Box. They were as advertised. They fit according to expectation. The designs were pretty and modern. The colors were Cuban and I have another order coming. I can't wait. I hope this one is as good

Hassel returns!
September 16, 2023

The website just does not want you to return items! They rather have you keep the items and give you a partial return than give you a full refund. They need to let customers know up front about this!

Beautiful Dress & Purse
September 16, 2023

I had placed my order on August 30th just to make sure I would get my wedding dress for my October wedding. It came surprisingly much faster and couldn't be happier. It's perfect. Can't wait to wear it in October

If only a zero-star rating was possible...
September 15, 2023

11/6/2023 Update--
STILL dead silence from "Megha" or anyone else at Light in the Box, despite their website's advertised 100% customer satisfaction guarantee. Absolutely appalling that they would bother to contact me after my negative Site Jabber review, promise me that my situation would be rectified after I provided order details, then completely ignore me and never follow up.

10/19/23 Update--
After posting my review on SiteJabber, I received a 9/17/23 email from the company almost immediately from a LightintheBox rep ("Megha"). She identified herself as a customer service supervisor, so I responded to her promptly. Sadly (but no surprise), a full month later, she still hasn't responded or followed up with me after that, and I still have the 4 awful dresses.

Simply awful if you need to return anything. I ordered 4 dresses from LightintheBox & paid $171.85. All 4 dresses were disappointments--poor quality construction, poorly matched colors in 2-piece outfits, etc. I've tried multiple times to get this company to agree to returns & refunds, but no reply. Worse, this order has been deleted their website, along with my correspondence with them about this order. Clearly, I'm stuck, but I now know to never order from them again.

Poor return policy
September 15, 2023

Ordered a wedding outfit by size option offered. Outfit runs very small thru arms and shoulders despite ordering a size big. I attempted to return only to have IN claimed 'custom made' and refused return. Totally never was custom ordered. Buyer beware when ordering.
