Yes i really satisfied about free shipping low charges. Unlike other ecommerce site charges more also customer service excellent
I had ordered it and I received it very quickly! I am so satisfied with the products!
I ordered 2 paintings (a set), they products I received had completely different colors than the advertised paintings. Moreover, one was different from the other, like made by 2 different people. I understand there may be a slight difference but what I received cannot be even hanged on the wall, instead of beige there is orange. Of course they refused to resend me new ones, as they should be.
Update: After a secondary complaint and publishing reviews, they returned me the money in full and apologized.

Was ist das denn für ein Bewertungssystem? Wegen Spamflut habe ich 1 Stern vergeben und nach dem Absenden stehen 5.
Was ist das denn für ein Bewertungssystem?
Also noch mal, Ware war gut, aber seitdem werde ich mit Werbung bombardiert. Abmeldung wird ignoriert, stattdessen werde ich zum dritten Mal zur Bewertung aufgefordert. Bitte sehr, aber wenn ich einen Stern vergebe, meine ich das auch so.
Guten Tag Ron,
Danke für das Schreiben ein Kommentar und sich an uns zu wenden.
Ich werde mein bestes Tun um Ihnen damit zu helfen. Sie können sich selbst von die Werbe-E-Mails abbestellen. Es gibt eine Option in diesen E-Mails um abzumelden. Eine zweite Möglichkeit hierfür ist das einfache Klicken auf den folgenden Link:

Wir haben Ihnen eine E-Mail mit weiteren Details gesendet (Ticket # 24519485). Sollte dies aus irgendeinem Grund nicht funktionieren, werde ich meinen Kollegen aus der Informatiker Abteilung um Hilfe bitten.
Wir sind Ihre gern dienlich!

The items take forever to arrive, then once you get them, it's nothing like the picture.

Todo perfecto 100% recomendable, la talla es muy ajustada a la real.
Vrlo dobro
Trebate naglasit koja je roba kineska. Radi velicine-brojeva
Expérience d'achat positif, facile de commander, descriptif clair, colis livré dans les temps annoncés
Tolle Produkte... kann ich empfehlen. Das Angebot ist sehr groß sowie eine tolle Auswahl.
It was exactly what I wanted and it was delivered faster than I expected.
Thank you
Status updates not clear, too late received, quality of product is pretty low. Expectations adjusted downwards for next time. Compensation low and unsatisfying… like too much effort to get money back.
Hi Chrisjan,
Thank you for reaching out to us.
Please accept our apologies for having faced this very unhappy shopping experience.
I saw that you've contacted us 2 weeks ago, requesting a return of 2 T shirts. You've told the quality wasn't satisfactory, and the order was received too late. We are very troubled by this, as we are committed to selling good quality products at an affordable price. Can you please tell us which aspects weren't good? Your details will allow us to make a claim, and might help us request a full refund from the supplier!
Upon further verification, I found that this order was supposed to be delivered no later than the 21st of September. We regret this was delivered 4 days later on the 25th. I apologize we couldn't deliver this order within promised schedule, and possible inconvenience caused. We fully recognize this as our mistake, should you decide to proceed with a return, then we will cover your return postage.
We have sent you an email (ticket #24519373) to help you resolve this problem. I stand by that we can help you obtain a refund without too much effort!
Awaiting your details,
LightInTheBox Customer Service Team
Highly recommend buying from your site. Amazing shopping experience and excellent quality
Great present for my son. He absolutely loves it. We were looking ages for it and couldn't find in shops here and these are unique.
The shirts I bought are good to were and very smooth. The prize is not expensive and the shipping is fast so you dont have to wait long for youre clothes
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.
