Love this site!
July 7, 2017

I've already order so many things from MiniInTheBox that I lost the count.
The site is incredible awesome! The one thing I've had a problem with a product, they just refound me right in the moment.
The shipment is the worst part, because it take long to come, but everything arrives well packed and we just need to keep calm and wait for a bit.
I highly recomend this shop to everyone, at least here in Portugal.

Ordered a pair of se215 earphones from them for $50. Ended up having to buy the original without getting the return price as shipping back to China doesn't make any economical sense. They offered the price I paid - the shipping cost for them and shipping back was $10+.

Would not recommend ordering from them.

For the return for defected item, we will cover the return postage. Please do not use express or expedited shipping service. And keep the return receipt with you, it will be the refund proof of your return fee. Thank you for your understanding.

I ordered a watch and 2 fidget cubes back in march. I still haven't received anything and miniinthebox remains silent as well. Never sent me an email saying it would be delayed, and whenever i make a complaint, I get brushed off with a standardized email. I will probably never get my package, or my money back. I'd strongly advise against buying from this store, it's a rip off.

It depends...
July 3, 2017

I bought 3 products: a Samsung original wireless charger and 2 USB flash drives.

The charger was a real deal: 10 euros instead of 49.90 in the Samsung Store and works perfectly.

The keys, on the other hand, were a real crunch: 32 Gb and 16 Gb, use 1 month easch one and then ready to trash...

Thety told me that I would return them if they were defective, but when they've arrived they were not. Were only of very very poor quality...

It was offered a coupon of 10 euros, but for an order of at least 21. So in addition to having wasted money for two nasty keys, I have to spend another 10 to buy another one? This is madness...

In addiction, I never received the coupon yet.

Luckily the main object (the charger) was perfect, otherwise I would have made a *°@é°!*... but I'm not really happy about the site and I do not know if I will use it again..

Ottima come sostituzione della lampada alogena su Tizio Artemide. Questa lampadina a led funziona anche a 12 V in corrente alternata quindi può rimpiazzare direttamente la versione alogena montata su queste lampade. Ci vuole un minimo di manualità in quanto i terminali delle due versioni non sono uguali e quindi c'è bisogno di un adattamento. Bella luce senza più calore.

Very good seller, I both two times and all was working stuff and coming fast. I insured my purchase from unforeseen expenses at customs and the store returned to me the customs fee that I had to pay. I recommend this seller to everyone.

Never, ever deal with this company. They cashed my money but I never received my order. There is no phone # to contact them. By email it is useless, they email a tracking # which informs you that you will receive your item in 38 days. It is well past this time. There should be somewhere we can register this complaint with as it is fraud in my opinion. Have learnt my lesson and will never order blindly again.

We ordered two spinners, and they arrived after 20 days just like the web page we ordered from said it would. My son loved the spinners.

They Have It All
July 1, 2017

This is a really good site, the more you look the more you want. They do have something for everyone and the quality is pretty good. I find it easier to put the stuff I like in my cart and then go back and pick exactly what want to purchase, it's easier then trying to go back and find the stuff all over again.

Ottimo rapporto qualita prezzo arrivati in 5 giorni. Le spese di sdoganamento mi sono state restituite grazie al pagamento extra di una piccola assicurazione il tutto in brevissimo tempo. Ottimo negozio online lo consiglio.
