“Highly recommended for sports apparel”

Elmer H.
7/5/17

I recommend buying their replica soccer jerseys; they have AAA quality shirts (modern and retro). They also have an extensive shirt collection for baseball, basketball, rugby, etc. and best of all they can even print your name on the jersey. They prices are unbeatable; for instance some soccer websites selling AAA replicas charge double or more than DHgate. The shipping cost is usually very low or even free, but you would have to wait 1 month for it.

“Scam do not use dhgate”

Ken H.
6/29/24

Never use dhgate absolute scam Orders *******9380 and order *******1385 from a company kenh06 scam is they indicate it is sent by Yanwen tracking no supplied but the tracking detailed are false. I have had packages used by this company so know a property tracking steps. Do not use dhgate go to a company like Ebay which you can see clearly company history. Dhgate hold your money for a couple of months then refund you, they encourage crap companies it's in their interest

I got completely scammed out of a lot of money. I ordered something in October and a month later after I had attempted to reach the seller several times because there was no tracking information, the site later said the seller's "store does not exist". I emailed Dhgate to request a refund and they tried to tell me the order had been delivered, which it definitely had NOT. I got scammed out of more than $60

Where to begin without giving you a migraine as well...? I've ordered several times from this site, 3 of 7 orders never arrived. The hurdles you have to go through to try and get your items or a refund are insane and they make it as difficult as humanly possible to do this. Plus, they have a time limit on how long it takes to resolve the matter before they close it and keep your money forever. They drag out the process so the time limit expires and you are screwed. Seller's with high ratings and thousands of transactions on their profile means nothing. They are shady con artists and DHGate is pro seller, anti-buyer. Their app is not user friendly when you need to upload evidence and the website is just as bad. You'll give yourself an ulcer trying to get your refund or your order. It's a lose-lose situation.

The item I ordered was not correctly filled either in size or color, and arrived AFTER the event I needed it for. The cost of the item was $115 including shipping, but to return it and get a refund would cost more than $220. (And they know this). They will not negotiate. Don't bother. You will likely not get what you want, and then be STUCK with it. It's a scam operation.

Hi A,

We understand that you're concerned. We checked this order and an agreement was reached between you and the merchant that you will return the item for a full refund and you pay for the return shipping cost.

We are unable to mediate on this issue right now because your agreement has to be facilitated. We suggest that you communicate with the seller and reach a new agreement. Once you've reached a new solution, please let us know so that we can facilitate it.

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate in chatting with us by clicking on Online Chat from our Customer Service page: www.dhgate.com/contact/contactUs.do

There's a lot of selection, decent pricing, and they have good customer support. If you encounter an issue like not recieving something or the item isn't as described they try to make it end fairly for you, which is needed because you can occasionally buy something that's not that great of quality if you use the site enough.

For reasons I won't get into here, I had my shipment delivered at another address. They were delivered in a timely manner, but I was not able to get them until just now. The items I ordered though, were very good quality and I would highly recommend them. The items run small, but they fit my wife (who is a petite size small) perfectly.

I have used dhgate a few times. It is similar to ebay but the items you are buying are knock offs I guess you could say but the price you pay for the things on dhgate its kinda worth it. I have bought a few watches from them and some other items and I have never been ripped off on dhgate before. They have an escrow service so you do not have to release the money to the seller until you receive what you ordered and are satisfied with it. Dhgate is good 5 stars

I ordered a product from DHGate. My order no was *******. I order this product on March 26,2017, and no updates till April 19,2017. I have raised dispute to DHgate, and they return back my money. But returning back the money is not the solution, and i need this product. Very unprofessional sellers are listed in DHgate. If i again order the same product from some other seller then it will take 1 month more. Please try to avoid DHgate for any purchase

All products were as described, of good quality and arrived quickly in good condition. DHgate website is easy to use and quickly let me see the status and history of all my orders. I have ordered about 15 times. One order was quickly cancelled by DHgate because it was out of stock and DHgate refunded immediately. I reordered at a later time and the reorder process was easy and fast.

Bought item and it was dispatched on the 24th of sept but it has not turned up and neither of my complaints have been replied to. I used my birthday money for this so will be disappointed if my smart watch never appears.

Joy Y. – DHgate Rep

Hi Tori! I fully understand that you have been waiting for your order since this was already declared as shipped by the seller. I have gone ahead to track this shipment and it seems that until now the website shows no update for the shipment. For the quickest resolution, We would suggest that you file a "Dispute Case" for this order so that you can ask for a refund or a replacement and at the same time the seller will be notified directly.
To file the Dispute case please go to your Active orders page and click the "Shipped" orders located at the LEFT SIDE of the page then you will see your order number there (please do not click the order number). After that, on the RIGHT SIDE of the order number you will see the option "Return and Refund" and you will just need to click that to fill out the needed information to file the Dispute.
Rest assured, your payment made is safe in DHgate and it will not be released to the seller without your confirmation. Your cooperation will be highly appreciated and we do assure you that this will be all in Very good in Progress! Thank you so much and have an amazing day.

My experience during this years purchases have been a really great experience. Some items have not been as they were advertised, however, the vendor made good on their item. I have shopped all year for an upcoming wedding and I have ordered many items from dresses to shower items and I have been extremely pleased dealing with DHGate. I would recommend this company to my friends and family.

I ordered a beautiful piece off this website because I just could not beat how cheap the prices were. They charged me and a few days after shipped it. Seemed like everything was going smoothly until a week later they recharged me for the item and sent my account into overdraft. I was livid. I imedietly contacted my bank (bank of America) and they quickly were able to cancel the charge. If I didn't get notifications from my bank this company from bum $#*! Beijing would have had the last.

Placed an order on 4 July 2018 and today 3 September 2018 I still cant find my package.
I been thrown back and forth between DHgate and Aramex and nobody has a clue where is my order/package when the tracing number says delivered one month ago. I spent so much time and energy to find my order that it became disgusting and stressful.

Just avoid IT if you dont want to to get dissapointed.

I ordered 2 cell phones and they were listed as stolen. I plan to start an international fraud case? I asked the seller to rectify this and they kept telling me to wait. I am not paying to ship back stolen goods. Dhgate should take ownership for things like this. I sent a message to customer service would you believe no one was intrested in responding. This is crazy.

Placed an order for a dress March 7 2020. I never received the dress or any shipping info. With s&h it was &170.00. On May 10 I asked for a refund and they denied me a refund and sent a horrendous replacement dress against my request not to send another dress because I had missed the event I ordered the dress for because I never received it. They gave me such a hard time. They only gave me a $30.00 refund and now I'm stuck with this horrific low quality dress. DHgate leaves it up to the customer to deal with their criminal sellers. The sellers name is ocky. Don't buy from them they are scammers.

Don't ever order from this scam company! They promise delivery and you don't get your items or if you do they are complete crap. Fool me once and shame on you, fool me twice, shame on me. I am a fool, first order last year was complete crap, this time I tried to order some nice face masks, and they never came. No real customer service, in a online chat que for 2.5 hours only to get a rep who was typing from a script with only a list of excuses and no help. Luckily I only lost $73, but everyone should beware!

I went to purchase some watches from them online and put in my credit card. I realized they charged extra for using AMEX so I stopped the page from loading and then went back to my order. I NEVER received any email confirmation that the charge went through and was able to use my mastercard. Weeks later I get two emails for my purchases. I tried to contact them and they told me the items had already shipped. My purchases were less than a min apart for the exact same order. No one contacted me to confirm i was making the same exact purchase in less than 1 min. I contacted them several times to try and resolve the matter and no one seems to care or help in the matter. I have offered to send the items back with a shipping label as well and still no response. I am beyond disgusted in these business tactics and do not recommend ever purchasing from this site.

Tip for consumers:
don't use it

Hi Debby!

We checked your orders here and both were already closed. We also want to set proper expectations that this is already beyond our after-sale policy.

We suggest that you send a message to the seller and negotiate on a resolution. If they agree on a refund, please ask him to leave a message for you saying 'I agree to refund you $***', and then you can contact us again and we will arrange the refund for you. If they dont agree to refund you we cannot operate for you too.

If you have any other question, please do not hesitate to contact us through the following link: http://www.dhgate.com/contact/contactUs.do?from=nav_menu&ntalker=1

This is February 3,2023 and there hasn't been an update about where my package is since January 3. By now I should have received it by anyone's standards and still nothing.
