“Satisfied customer - have ordered several times”

Received my order in a remote village in Mexico--dirt roads gets you to my house. Everything came as ordered. Loved the polo shirt and the socks are amazing. One size fits all and they stretch perfectly to fit. Will definitely keep ordering ion future.

“Don't waste your money”

Scott T.
10/18/24

Do not waste your money. Sizes and color do not match descriptions. Your options for returns are horrific. I chose the 30% refund and keep the garbage I received for sake of simplicity. To return is a nightmare. Expensive lesson learned. Date of experience: October 18,2024

I ordered 3 sweat shirts and 2 shirts, all in different sized. The 2 x sweatshirt I couldn't get over my head even though I'm a medium in US sizes. All shirts were extremely small and I could not give them as gifts.
When I tried to return them for larger sizes, I was told it would be too expensive to return and I should just live with them. Absolutely no customer service at all.
Be careful ordering from them.

Delivery takes a bit, understandable though. Marked down prices excellent, kinda makes up for the shipping cost. Some products are of lesser quality. If I was a women, I'd have a hay day on this site.

The dress arrived and was as shown. However, the dress was too small and the coat was too large. Received a refund after I returned at my expense.

I ordered 2 gowns from this site. Apparently I did not read carefully. I ordered 2 sizes since I wasn't sure which size would fit. These were straight sizes… not custom measurements. Between not fitting and the smell I contacted customer service via email this took a lot of time, filling out information, attaching picture of gown, explaining issues. I did this as soon as I received the dresses as there is a short window of time? 7 days from delivery to your home and delivery must be confirmed before returns can be made) Since I got two identical dresses I was " out the money" which was $359.00
The gowns had a distinct order to them Read the fine print before spending your hard earned money with this company. I could not locate a phone number to speak to a live person either. Buyer beware. This was a dress for my son's wedding.

Tip for consumers:
Read the return policy carefully

Products used:
Neither dress

I have ordered different types of shirts, all of good quality, however the sizes do not match... one XL is not the same as another XL. Delivery takes about two weeks, which isn't bad coming from China to Canada.

Very satisfied

After paying for purchase and waiting for delivery for two weeks, we were required to pay additional custom charge / tax in the amount of 40% of our purchase before the delivery date. Information about this charge is not provided before you make payment so you would not possibly know about this during the checkout process. The company's explanation is that they would not know the exact amount of tax that each country may ultimately charge their clients when goods are crossing the border therefore they do not mention this amount during the payment process. Meanwhile in company's Q&A section on their internet page I found the statement which says: " If there is such a tax, the charge will be displayed on the checkout page. Please check clearly before you make a payment." Which obviously did not happen.

On top of that, when contacting customer service about this issue, I was informed that it will not be refunded if I disagree with the new payment condition and decide to reject my purchase. They said that their products are very popular among customers (good argument to not inform customers about full cost?) and their recommendation would be to accept new payment, receive the item and then see if I want to return (subject to their return policy).

Overall very disappointing experience that I believe does not meet customer protection policies of any country no matter where the parcel is delivered. It also doesn't help firm's reputation.

I ordered a vest, tie, bowtie, and hat for my husband wear to a vintage Valentine's dinner. The tie and bow tie was definitely child size and I think the vest was. Hat was too large. He could wear none of it.
The top for me was fine.

Unique array of products, not often found on other sites, especially at the prices quoted. Relatively simple transaction process, shipping services and time was reasonable, fit and finish of purchased items was great.

Quality Transaction.

For my online clothing experience, LITB cannot be beat. Selections are stylish, and prices are very competitive, especially during their sale events. Transactions are pretty straightforward, and shipping times are very reasonable.
This purchase was a great experience, and I will revisit LITB for future purchases.

After I advertised with evidence the negative experience of the local package delivery company, they found another company that works without any problems, and they are very kind. Here is an example that the world can be made beautiful. Thank you

I have yet to get any response on my request for a return of an outfit that looks nothing like the picture. The outfit looks horrendous. It is not "custom made". Way too much material for the jacket. Order at your own risk! Highly recommend ordering from another business
