Real opinion
December 26, 2023

Until this year i was never one to shop online, always sceptical of being scammed or so,
Then i decided to have a go and i was pleasantly surprised by light in the box merchandise.
The quality of the clothing i have purchased was well above my expectations, and i highly recommend
Light in the box to all my friends. Thank you

Disappointing...
December 26, 2023

In the pictures, the T-shirts look good!
The delivery was absolutely 'on the button!'
So far, so good...
I wore the 'Innocent until proven guilty' T-shirt for TWO hours, including one hour's driving: the 'pilling' down the back was dreadful!
I am not sure how to remove it but as it is, the T-shirt looks unfit for wear.
What should I do next? Any ideas out there?
Cheers!

Not made as stated in the description
December 26, 2023

I bought a pair of boots and they are tight in the ankle and when I do get my feet through they are too big in the foot part of the boot. They are very cheaply made the material inside the upper part is a black velvet so you can't even fold them down if you want to. The darker pieces on the back dig into my ankle and the description says they are platform but they are not platform they are flat and I need the platform that is the reason I bought them plus I love the style and how they look in the pictures. They were cheaply made and definitely not what I paid for

Great shipping and communication
December 26, 2023

Good lether jacket lightweight and warm,only issue is that the 3X size runs a little smaller than other brands I have tried.
They should offer tall sizes also.

Well made product
December 26, 2023

Beautiful satin fabric and well made beautiful skirt. Talented seamstress. Shipping is slow so it took 2 weeks but it was high season for shipping due to Christmas. Recommend choosing expedited shipping.

Fantastic service and deals
December 26, 2023

Very easy to order, all discounts apply, everything fit and was precisely as described. The bathing suits fit perfectly and the abdominal sweat tee shirt works phenomenally. All the Christmas decorations are as exactly pictured in advertisements. I am more than satisfied and I think this is my third order. Every thing fits shirts, shoes, and shorts. I'm going to keep ordering because this company is so reliable and the prostate top notch.

I bought this item as a test for the accuracy of the company's sizing method, which I found confusing. I wanted to know, in case I wished to order other items in the future. I ordered "large", since that is my usual size for most shirts or sweaters. The T shirt was way too loose (granted, I'm 86 yrs old and have lost considerable muscle mass. My torso measurements for most of my adult life were: chest 44", waist 32", but presently are: chest 40", waist 32"). For proper T fit, I'd now need a "small", using LightintheBox sizing, however, the sleeves for "small" would be much too short. Please align with international standards.

I was also concerned about the lack of information regarding material. This really needs to be adressed. The material in this garment is delightfully fine and soft- much softer than cotton; great for an undershirt. Is it possibly bamboo? One cannot know, for lack of information: that is so for all advertised garments. Please improve by adding such information.

Sincerely,
Jack.

Sizes and shipping
December 26, 2023

Slow shipping,and size description wrong from one item to another,returning items is unpleasant,or you have to jump through loops to do so,most of the items are cheaper than the other sites but more complicated to deal with if you receive the wrong size or item,in all not a good experience,

Ordered received dress unfinished.
December 26, 2023

I find shopping interesting and receiving the item by post, secure & swift, through LightiTheBox policies.
If the item does not match the advertisement, it should not be sent. Otherwise, I am a very pleased customer.

I don't know how to rate my experience yet, as I'm still waiting to receive it after 22 days. Wanted to order more items but before I did I wanted to see the quality of the items I'm waiting on. Now they have gone off sale.
