“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 can find everything. The prices are unbeatable, the delivery without delays and the commitment of your suppliers very high.
I have talked about your portal to other professionals seeking products from China.
Thank you for your services

I bought a pair of sunglasses that looked amazing. They were very high quality and really cheap. You can't beat it for the price! Waiting a little bit longer for shipping is worth it for the discounted prices!

Where can you find quality like this (titanium & carbon fiber) for the $ I spent here? They even covered the shipping! Anytime I had questions in the past they respond ASAP. That's more than I can say for a lot of sites these days...

My experience ordering from DHGate has been very positive on each of the occasions I have ordered through them. The sellers shipped my order quickly, and I received the items in good time. My most recent order was exactly as the seller said it would be - very impressive for the price.

I was going to order a set of golf clubs and video camera. It was very difficult for their system to except my credit card. I tried many times My suspicions were aroused. So, I gave it one more try but on a cheaper item, a memory card. The order was accepted. Ive waited over 7 weeks still not arrived. Luckily I did not attempt to buy the golf clubs or camera.

Hi Ken,

We are sorry for the experience you had with your order. We tracked this and it is for pick up in THA PHRA KHON KAEN since 2017-04-07. We suggest that you contact your local post and give them the tracking number RS398207393CN. That way, they can check on their end if they still have your package.

If they no longer have the package, you have the option to open a dispute for the order for refund or reshipment of the item.

Here's how you can open a dispute for your order:
1) Click "My DHgate " on the upper right corner of the page.
2) Click Awaiting Confirm".
3) Find the Order number and click the link "Return&Refund" at the right side of the order.

If the problem is not resolved through direct communication between you and seller, or if you don't get a response from the seller, you may request for DHgate Mediation after 5 days that you have clicked on "Return & Refund" link and then we will assign a person from Resolution Center to take care of your case.

For any other questions, please do not hesitate to contact us through the following link: http://www.dhgate.com/contact/contactUs.do?from=nav_menu&ntalker=1 or send an email to customer-support@dhgate.com.

This company support fraudulent practices. The companies they deal with even more so. You place an order and cancel the order shortly afterwards. They rush to take your money send the item, in spite of the cancellation and repeated communication will not allow the item returned. The item is first of all damaged, inferior and not as shown. They request that you start a dispute and even though the info was sent to them they are judge and jury refusing to return your money in every which way. Just a waste of time.
DO NOT PURCHASE FROM THIS COMPANY. I don't like to support Amazon, but after this lesson I learned that Amazon is way, way better. They value their customers. Never had an issue with Amazon!
If this has ZERO stars it would be -100 stars!

Tip for consumers:
Full refund if product not as shown, defective and damaged and if customer not satisfied.

Products used:
None- Stuck with their damaged and defective product and they refused to return money.

This site is very good and most things in there are decent quality. It is not a scam. But make sure to check the sizing charts for everything you buy as some things are in Asian sizing so order a couple sizes up or some are normal fitting

Hello:
I am very happy with DHGate and services provided.
All items listed are clearly indicated and prices are excellent.
Suppliers are expedient and great to communicate with when necessary.
I do however experience an occasional problem with your site when making payment, I need to repeat this action usually more than once, which can be a little annoying from time to time.
But I am very happy with all other aspects.

I opened a dispute because the seller send me an invalid tracking number, the Dhgate give a few days to check.
They were very helpful and understanding my case.
Everything goes smoothly and easy.
Thank you Dhgate, I am satisfied and feel safety when I purchase from you.

Delivery is too long and you have to pressure them into sending your items. Bad customer service and bad customer support. And I only received one of my items back even after I returned items that was the wrong sizes. And did not get a refund or anything

Phone is absolutely great. And cheaper than anywhere on a Chinese site. Delivery was faster than fast, for China (DHL, 2 to 5 delivery days, working days). But what I didn't saw coming was that I had to pay 51,43 because of the customs costs (maybe for the contributor who 'cared for my package in the customs?).
Anyway, everything is so good, except the extra costs what I didn't knew.

NO STAR. Horrible! The item took long to come then when it came it was not what was shown in the picture! Poorly made dress. When I tried to return it it would cost me 56 dollars. The merchant did not supply a return postage. In America when we shop online we get free exchange and return. I still haven't gotten my refund! Need this resolved before I take this issue to the media!

I've placed three orders from DHgate so far and every experience has been good enough to make me order more.

Where I live, it takes close to a month to received orders, but the bargains are so good that I'll happily wait that long. Every item I've ordered has been as described and at a fraction of the cost of other vendors.

I recommend DHgate often to friends, and I keep ordering myself. :)

DHgate has helped me save money on personal product purchases and has also helped me find products to further my business. I enjoy coming to the website every day in search of my next purchase. The only reason I give 4 out of 5 stars on quality because whenever I am viewing a message about an inquiry of a product, there is the option to "View this item" directly from the message, but whenever I click that button and select the option, the link always fails and the page never gets pulled up. Of course there are many other ways to view the product, but the convenience of opening the item right from the inquiry would be fantastic, if I could get it to work.

You can buy stuff cheap on this website, as most sellers are in china so you can get wholesale items and whatnot. KEEP IN MIND that the items are sold by people and there are some bad apples. They do have a return service that is run by the website but i've only used it once and the seller was very courteous. Items will usually take a week to a month to arrive if you live in america

I have been trying for over 2 months to get my money refunded due to them sending the wrong product. Product was sent back and received by seller and I am told now DH gate can no longer handle my case and can't get my refund, even though they hold the money during disputes. They are a joke and a scam!

Tip for consumers:
Do not use them!

Purchased very expensive bubble tent £650 poor quality torn bare wires blower wouldn't work attempted for over 10 days to open dispute to stop payment via dhgate website very conveniently would not work to open dispute/ refund request or send evidence (on about 50 occasions) customer service via robot with no contact available to speak and complain website worked exceptionally well to take payment promising all kinds of (false) payment protection procedures so you would trust them and purchase from them absolutely disgraceful non existent after service they should be ashamed I would appreciate a reply thankyou

Hi Paula,

We are committed to giving a refund and our refund process should be followed. You mentioned that our website did not work when you tried filing an After-sale Dispute, please send us a screenshot on the error or the page you see which is not letting you go further so that we can check more details. Please be sure to capture the time as well when you tried filing a dispute as this is needed. We've pulled up your communication with the seller and you've just contacted them today but the item was delivered on 2017-04-28 according to the tracking site. Can you tell us why did you not contact the seller right away after receiving the item please? We strongly encourage our customers to contact the seller right away if they have issues with the items that they receive since our sellers are willing to resolve issues with the transactions as long as they are notified about it.

We will be needing the seller's confirmation in order for us to process a refund, please ask the merchant to send you a message stating "I agree to give you a refund of $****". Once the seller sends you this message, please contact us back so that we can operate the refund for you.

Please do not hesitate to contact us through the following link if you have any questions: http://www.dhgate.com/contact/contactUs.do?from=nav_menu&ntalker=1 or send an email to customer-support@dhgate.com.

I have been waiting on tracking information since July 27,2023. DH gate has closed my account for safety concerns, I cannot log in using my email to communicate with the seller. I did see online that you have to communicate via Facebook, but the person asked for my debit card information to track my order. What legit company would ask for sensitive information that could lead to fraud. I honestly think I have been scammed

I bought 3 pairs of shoes. First 2 identical and they came in 3 weeks. No issues. 3rd pair came in 4 weeks and were defective. 1 shoe had topstitching in 2 different colors on one section only. The soles were lined in the exact same material you line skirt slips in! That super slippery thin polyester material. The material is wrinkled throughout both shoes and is unevenly glued on. I try to get a ref but when you try to file a dispute for ANY reason it provides an automated response that your claim does not qualify. That means 100% of all disputes for defective material or not as described or does not function as declared are denied automatically by the website. This seller keeps saying: 1/2 refund, but doesn't say a dollar amount. Never credits me either. I have had to call my credit card company. Another sellers shoes still have not arrived and it's been 6 weeks! Can't get my money back for item not received. It's about $95.

Tip for consumers:
Do not trust the dispute platform. It’s not real. You complete everything and it just gives an automated response that your dispute is denied. No review. I claimed item not as described. Then defective material on the dispute application. Instantly an automated response said: Your claim does not qualify. No review process. Nothing. Automatically denied!!!

Products used:
I have had success buying multiple items from a different seller there but once you have a problem or receive a defective item or the shipping is lost or takes up to 2 months you’re left without help. Misleading messages just say sorry but wait. Or partial refund of the item but no dollar amount. The dispute platform is fake. It turns down instantly your request without review.

I should have read reviews online before ordering. I was scammed out of $61. Shoes were not as described. Size chart said US9.5 is a 43. They were huge, more like an 11. I'm told by seller, too bad, you ordered. Had to wait 10 days for DHGate mediation, which was a total joke on me. They immediately side with the sellers, release funds to them, close dispute. How is that mediation? (Only an $5 store credit offered for next purchase, by the seller!). Also, DHGate removed my dispute information from the account. I took screenshots.
They could care less if you are a new customer.

Products used:
I did not use a product. I purchased slides. Wanted to return for a full refund, if they would send me a prepaid return label.
