Of most of what I paid for in vain!- but Never again!

Before you purchase note that many purchases will not qualify for a refund. Be sure to look at what's excluded, many dresses are considered custom made and they won't refund if it doesn't fit. In order to return you have to pay postage back to China, but they won't accept the package without a return authorization. Check out the BBB ratings before you buy.
Before my purchase, the delivery time was set to 5-7 days. However, now that I have made the purchase (of over 150€!) the delivery is showing it may take up to a month. I need my items much sooner than that I or I will not be able to use them at all. My order is still showing as processing after 4 days and I am afraid I will not receive my items in time. I have tried contacting customer service but I have not gotten a response. PLEASE I do not want to cancel my order but I will have to if I do not receive a response ASAP!
PLEASE contact me so I can change my review and hopefully give 5 stars for great customer service.

I do not do reviews but because I thought this merchandiser was the worst I have used, I WANTED TO WARN PEOPLE. I bought (2) pair of pants and each was a different size. They would not allow me to return the pair that did not fit. If that was not bad enough, the items I purchased were not of the quality I expected or wanted. Deleivery took 8-10 weeks and I asked them to cancel my order and they refused. And their customer service is lacking. MY OPINION. I will not be shopping here again.

I love the wall hanging pictures, amazing colours and quality, just like shown on the Pictures. Very good price, so I bought many of them for presents... only long time waiting... It would be nice If more of the dresses and T- Shirts and jackets would be made of Cotton, Natural Material, less electrical uploading and sweating... Me and other customers would buy even more. But thank you for quick writing back, so good customer service in that point.
LightInTheBox reached out quickly. They explained the delay was caused by Chinese New Year. They also help set another ETA (this Friday). Finger cross.
We bought the dress for coming wedding. The website shows 7-10 day processing time. BUT, it is over 30 days since order was placed, and it is still "under processing".
We contacted customer service a few days ago, who told us it will be shipped no later than March 5th. Okay fine, we will wait.
Today is March 6th, the order has NOT been shipped as they promised. Excuse me? Can some one at least let us know the next. Should we wait for a few more days to cancel the order?
Now, the wedding day is approaching, we may have to shop our wedding dress somewhere else. Disappointed.
Bought a wool coat, received the wrong size, was not in accordance with the image.
Couldn't get full refund.
After many emails settled for 50% discount.
Estimated cost for return was CAD 283.00 (Canada Post)
Never ever trust this website

I wish to advise that although the below comments still reflect my own shopping experience, Customer Service has since reached out to me and refunded the full costs of both dresses, for which I am most thankful. This site has many lovely clothes, and their shipping timeline is fast and tracking information keeps the customer informed as to progress, so provided the purchase is received as ordered, no negative comments would ever apply to any part of the transaction.
I have nothing but bad comments to make about this website. There is no guarantee that your order will be correct, and there is absolutely no co-operation from Customer Service. I ordered a dress size 9/10Y but received a dress size 8/9Y. After totally unsatisfactory interaction with Customer Service, I cut my losses and re-ordered the dress, only to now receive size 5-6Y. I am now out of pocket for 2 dresses and 2 shipping costs. Contacting Customer Service is an absolute waste of time – offers of percentage "reward" on new orders are only valid if "The Total Price for All Products must be over TWICE of the rewards value." Any offer of refund entails the customer paying for return cost of the item even though these repeated mistakes are ALL THE FAULT OF THE COMPANY and its shoddy despatch department.

I bought twice from here. OMG Do not waste your money. The products you see in this website are not even worth a penny. Absolutely garbage. Size is always wrong and material is just trash. You'll regret spending even a dollar here.

I wanted to return my dress (I was not happy with quality of the fabric), they would not accept a return and only offered 15% refund (which is silly). Will never be ordered from them again.

I ordered a xl trench coat street jacket that took forever to arrive and when I received it, I opened a plastic bag to find the ugliest cheapest jacket that I've seen in my life, it doesn't even look like the pictures on the site. The jacket was way, way too small yet it was marked as XL. Stay the hell away from this site! Don't get ripped of like I did, I'm really sorry I did not check the reviews on this site before I ordered from LightTheBox.

Light in the Box is a JOKE! I bought a dress, checking the return policy before hand to be sure I could get a refund, received the dress and the quality was junk. Tried to return it, it was a whole process, we had to upload photos, a ton of back and forth correspondence, it ended up that the $30 dress was going to be $29 to ship back. Light in the Box said we may not even get a refund, they would determine this upon inspection. Not wanting to risk losing an additional $29, we decided to keep for a partial refund, they ended up giving us $9 store credit. DO NOT ORDER FROM HERE! Stick with well known reputable places!

Do not expect anything from them. I do not recommend this online store because they told me "7days" delivery. It is 20, and I received an email saying that the order could not be sent. The order was for about 190 dollars, and I expected the order because I have my son's weeding.

The items were of absolutely terrible quality. The size was all over the place, the shape of the cardigan and top were completely weird, and the waistline on the shorts were so out of shape that I'm not sure what words to use to describe it.
At my attempt to refund the items, I had to make a choice between posting them back and paying for the postage, or settling for a low cash refund. Either way, I lost a fair bit of money, while the company cashed in. This business model is very questionable, and the crappiness of the items was t questioned. It's like they know exactly what they're doing, which is a scam.

Answer: Hello, I bought a few things and the quality was not very good and the sizing was totally wrong. I also bought a cellular charger and the battery inside was not soldered correctly. Lightinthebox has great price, but you pay for what you get, which isn't much. I have stopped buying from them.
Answer: Same problem... All thru email
Answer: We didn't buy a dress but the sizes are very small and the returns policy is a joke. I ended up losing money.
Answer: Dear Customer, we do recommend to you to refer to the size chart on each of the clothes first and then pick a suitable size for you.
Answer: Dear Customer, thank you for your inquiry. We're really sorry that our company made you feel nervous. Please kindly note that the total delivery time = processing time + shipping time. So for the arrival date of your package. It depends on the processing time of the product and the shipping method you choose. About the processing time, please kindly check the processing time on the product page. About the shipping time, you mentioned you paid extra fee for faster delivery. If the service you chose was expedited shipping, normally it takes 3-4 business days for shipping. If it's standard service, then 5-8 business days for shipping. If the order is delayed, we'll take full responsibility of that and you can contact us through tickets. You can refer to this guide to contact customer service: http://www.lightinthebox.com/knowledge-base/c1192/a2974.html
Answer: Will you send us your order number so that we can check?
Answer: Dont buy anything from this site. The picture is good, the object quality is garbage. You will be cheated and loose you money.
Answer: You NEVER get your money back... dont use them. I am amazed this company is allowed to trade, I am sure we have law's against this kind of practise.
Answer: Suggest not to buy. Might end up not receiving the order or received the wrong size and would be returning and paying shipping or requesting a refund or not receiving a refund at all. There's more legit company like Amazon where I bought the same one I ordered from Lightinabox, which I did not received. Sorry, but I would not trust this Co for anything. It' up to you to take the risk.
Answer: Count yourself lucky and DO NOT ORDER FROM THEM! You will be disappointed in the clothing and size from this company. All of the clothing I received was horrible quality and did not look at all like the photo they had online. They were just plain awful and the sizing was a joke. I received an XL shirt that would not fit a small person and a Med shirt (was supposed to be the same shirt as the XL) and the medium was literally larger than a 4x One was a terrible quality plain sweatshirt with a sticker posted on it and the other was a draping long gown like garment. I was appalled.would recommend finding a different company.
Dear customer,
This is Bloo, supervisor of customer service,
If you have met some problem with your orders, would you mind provide me your order number and email address?
I will help you
