My item cost me x 2 original price and was late. There is no way to communicate to them without having installed their app. I paid $30 for shipping then I received a message from DHL that i have to pay clearance $28.00 in addition. They won't release it unless I go pay for it. Light in the box said they would reimburse me, because they also charged duty tax insurance on top of shipping charges. I never received reimbursement. I paid $26 for a shirt and $58 for shipping, insurance and duty. Be aware!
Lightinthebox is an amazing company. I ordered a pair of shoes for my God Daughter. They were not shipped on the expected date. However, I was fully informed and provided options in the case that I no longer wanted the shoes. Lightinthebox is very responsive and always keeps me updated. I reached out to them to see if they were able to still get the shoes. The shoes became available and since I've been waiting for them and they were for my God Daughter, LTB shipped them overnight to me at no additional cost. In addition, they provided me with coupons for my inconvenience. The service provided by LTB puts the "H" back into humanity. My God Daughters mother passed away in December. She was my best friend for over 20 years. We always looked out for each other and made a promise that if one of us passes away that the other one will make sure that all children were taken care of. LTB listen to my story and went up and beyond to make sure the shoes got here. Thank you LTB!
I ordered things and most were cheaply made and looked terrible. The return policy is 7 days (items I wanted for vacation arrived late after I left, and even if I had received them timely they could only be returned within 7 days to China at my expense).

The products came very poor quality, stitching was coming undone, I sent them the pictures They will not take a return unless I pay to ship it to China? They tell me to accept a 60% discount credit and keep the product. This was shipped to me from a distribution center in New York. This is a Chinese company shipping crap into this country and making us think we are getting a deal. Do not do business with them!
I would give no stars if I could. I'm trying to return a purchase, and they are asking many questions. If I knew I would have so much trouble returning an item, I would never buy with them.
I bought 2 hats that arrived very smashed in a box without protection.
This is an unacceptable procedure for an online shop.

This company is a totally scam. I ordered some items 8 days ago and were told I would have them within 4-6 days. Sent an email and asked about mu things and they came
Back and told me it would take 8-9 to reply. At that time I will be back in Europe, with no items and my money gone.
Hi Jan,
Thanks for having taken the time to write this review. Hope you had a wonderful New Year's Eve!
When I look at the tickets, I saw that you've requested to change the address the day before yesterday. My colleague replied to you within 12 hours to help confirm the address. Kindly note most products have to be obtained from external suppliers, and we advertise each with a processing time on the product page, which can be seen just below the 'add to cart' button. It's not possible to immediately send the package, if you didn't choose products that we have in stock. In your case, the hoodies are advertised with a processing time between 2-5 business days. In the meantime these have already arrived at the warehouse, however we needed to put your order on hold, since you requested to modify the address to another country. Now, it's with much regret I need to tell that the financial department doesn't allow changing the country. Is there another address in the states we can send your parcel to? Please let me know so we can dispatch your order, or you prefer to cancel it for a refund.
We have sent you an email (ticket #25066128) to further assist you. Please let me know so we can dispatch your order, or you prefer to cancel it for a refund.
We'll be awaiting your reaction.

I placed an order with this website for a few shorts for the summer. I ordered six items and only one of them was somewhat okay I could make due with it. The other 5 items were the worst quality! Not made well cheap material and definitely nothing like they were shown in the pictures. I can't wear any of them they are useless items. I message customer service. Which takes forever to get a response. They offer me 15 percent back and I don't have to return them. So now I have wasted my money and I have garbage to get rid of.
They send me a ticket to return but you have to pay for the shipping back. Which is not right. If I ordered wrong sizes I can understand that. But to pay for the shipping back after I already paid for them to ship me these garbage items. Would NEVER Shop at this site again complete waste of your money. I would give less then 1 star if I could

I ordered 2 orders. 1 for around $21. The other was for around $98. They both have been paid for the minute I ordered them. Now even with the $29 expedited shipping, says same thing on both. (Processing) I sent a msg in their app. No answer yet. Getting worried. These are Christmas gifts.
Hi Debbie,
Thank you for reaching out to our customer service.
Please don't be worried, both orders will arrive largely in advance before Christmas. The premium shipping method was chosen for the largest order, which according to DHL was delivered yesterday. For the second order, you've selected one of the cheaper shipping method, at a cost of $5.52. It would have been more advantageous to gather all the items in 1 single order. You can follow the second order from the tracking link below:

Don't ever buy any clothes from this "LightInTheBox"!
Their men's sizes are like kid's. If you should need to return or change sizes, you need to pay your own shipping fee and ship it to a Chinese address. It means slow and costly for the returning process. They won't refund you until they receive your returned item.
Hi Robert,
Thank you for leaving a comment on our page.
I am sorry for the troubles caused. We firmly believe returning an item should be easy. The sizing might run small when compared to your habitual North American size. For this reason we indicate all our products with their exact measurements --in both inches and centimetres-- on our website. But no worries, you may return the jackets back as instructed last week. Once your parcel would have arrived it will be subjected to our warehouse their quality checks. In the event the measurements of the jackets wouldn't correspond with those indicated on the size chart, then we will be able to refund your return postage in full!

After placing my order for expedited delivery, I find out it won't ship for a minimum of 14 days plus 7 days shipping. IF I'm lucky it would arrive in 21 days. I cancelled the order in less that 36 hours but now they want to charge me a 50% cancellation fee. I can understand a small cancellation fee but 50%... that's ridiculous. I can only imagine how difficult returns must be!

Their service is horrible... delivery can time take over 2 months. So don't ever order for Christmas.
No way to contact them to get a refund... System is clunky and unfriendly. They ignore requests to cancel, ship anyway and don't offer a refund w/o customer paying air freight for return to who knows where!

First off, in order to return something, you need to jump through a million hoops. It is very hard to find information online on how to return anything, so once you pillage through useless information to get to anything substantial, you have wasted hours. Then, I followed their policy to the letter. I packaged up a large order to return, went to UPS on my dime, mailed it to a factory, took pictures of everything including my dated receipts, and never heard from them again. I emailed over and over. Nothing. Never got a dollar. 6 months later, the package is returned to me. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY! I wish there was a zero star rating.

Nice shorts but not Tru to size, I ordered one size up and they were still a bit snug. I won't put these in the dryer cuz if they shrink they'll be too tight. The biggest size is 40, im a 38, I wish they made a 42. That said, I do like the shorts and I bought another pair...
The fabric and fit of the items I ordered did not live up to the description or my expectation. Returning the items is not possible, as far as I can tell. There are no return labels enclosed in the package. I will never buy from you again.

This company deals in nothing but fraud and lies. From my first email complaint to them - and I will gladly make public the full email chain - they have changed their story (and even my order details!) too many times to mention. They make a show of trying to resolve the issue, but in fact are dreaming up lies to cover fraud - with the intention of frustrating the client to the point that they give up. But I won't give up until I am fully refunded. WORST online buying experience ever, and a colossal waste of time and energy.
Order No.: #*******.
Don't do it! The pictures look nice, and the sizing looks like it will fit, but when it arrives, it's poorly constructed and half the size you thought you had bought.
The return policy is even worse. You have to pay to mail it back to China. In my case, returning a $50 dress will net me $10 back. They will send you a coupon to apply to a future purchase, but why would I go through this again. Worthless!

After 26 days received 3 of 4 items, after 29 days was told the last item is still being processed. The 3 items that was delivered were ok, 1 shirt fit ok, 1 shirt fit was not so good, and the sport cost fit well but sleeves about 2 inches too long, costing $39 to get altered. Slow delivery times unacceptable and quality of merchandise a bit on the low side in my opinion. One and done with these guys.

I ordered 2 dance shoes that were too small and wide for my feet. In order to return them, I had to pay for shipping costs to China which was almost half the price of the shoes. You cannot speak with anyone on the phone so I had to deal with online 'Molly' from customer service. They made it extremely pricey and difficult to return the item. I will never do business with them again!

US women, do NOT purchase shorts from this venue. A size women medium, clearly is not correct! Unless you would like to use these for a doll or infant, maybe the size would be correct. Tried to return and it will cost $267.61 for UPS to send international. Awful company, now disputing the charge with my credit card company.
