Please avoid this platform. They will take your money but never send the goods. I have been robbed by them. Liars and thieves.

I ordered a massage gun. It was delivered much later than promissed. From then on things only got worse. Massage gun stopped working after 3 days. First it became weaker and slower and than stopped instantly once you try to use it. I contacted customer support - first of all they assume you are an idiot and try to convince you that it is because you did not charge the item even though the movie you send them clearly show that the item is fully charged. Then you fell into some kind of a loop. They tell you to send a movie and to wait few days. After few days nothing happens. When you ask them what is going on they ask you for either a movie or some kind of a number. When you give it to them of ask what number do they want they tell you again to wait a few days, and the loop starts again. Its been nearly 60 days of exchanging messages and I got multiple the same messages from them. It may not be possible to get a refund if you buy a faulty item from them. WATCH OUT.

I cancelled a order Nov 30, 2020 because the product never shipped as promised. Refund time was 14 days. Approaching 30 days and still have not received my refund. I contacted them and now the are saying it will be 30 business days. Do not buy from them.

Gearbest stopped supporting customers in case of defective devices!!. Be very careful what you buy!! or better STOP and use other shops! I used to buy a lot of products from them but this was possibly my last after such behaviour. Very bad recent support experience!

Terrible products & customer service. Bought a robot hoover, it broke within 2 weeks. Took months to get a replacement. 2nd one broke within 4 months - I now have to pay the international shipping fees to return the broken item as warranty is only for 45 days and GEARBEST will NOT refund. AVOID TERRIBLE COMPANY TERRIBLE PRODUCTS & TERRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE

Worst onlineshop ever! Don't buy there! The items are not in stock after you actually bought them or you wait for months.

Last few orders were a lottery. Some of arrived just fine, some of them very late and some of them I never received. I tried to resolve this with customer support for 7 months, but didn't receive my order nor money back.

Readers can assess the challenges of dealing with this Internet seller, the rating should be no stars. In the last 12 months multiple items ordered and paid for were never received. Even when you paid for S&H to increase the possibility of receipt - no luck. Vendor provided Tracking Numbers cannot be traced back to any known shipping company. GB tells you to contact the seller for assistance and relief. The marketplace vendor tells you to contact GB and submit a Ticket for refund. The useless customer service function replies to the Ticket talking about extended shipping cycles, paid for delivery 15-30 days, 90 days later still lost in the Universe. The exchanges with customer service just loops without resolution. Paypal is also impotent in resolving the paid for but not received issue - referring you back to GB for a refund. The issue is the lack of integrity in GB business operations through marketplace vendors. My orders involved items that were early sales at a good price for example iHealth non contact thermometer sold at $23.99 that is now being sold by the same vendor Lii 3C Store for $49.99. The price went up since August and they decided to take my money and sell the same item to another for double the price. Take your business elsewhere the same products can be found through others Chinese sites as well as the big "A" who has off shore marketplace sellers with a reliable business model.

Numerous consumers report a lot of difficulty in getting a response the company’s customer service department, despite multiple attempts to each them by telephone or email. Several consumers that do interact with the company’s customer service team are allegedly told that their products have been shipped and they are provided with a tracking number. Those consumers claim that the tracking numbers received from Gearbest.com are not valid and cannot be traced by the shipping carrier (FedEx, USPS).

Do not recommend!!!! Worst experience ever! I bought a smartphone using Gearbest and from the beginning that it was a nightmare. First, the phone took over 3 months to be delivered, without any tracking number that was valid for me use and not even the Gearbest support could track the item. After months of talking to the support team, always asking for patience, more and more waiting time, the phone finally arrived. After 3 months in use, the screen and battery stop working and the phone becomes completely inoperable. New ticket and contact with support and another extremely unpleasant experience. After more than a month of trying to resolve the situation, since the phone is within its year of warranty, I obviously requested a refund request given that the technical/support team states that the phone can not be repaired or replaced by a new one. Here began the excuses and the cheeky swindle of this company. First, I am within my right to request a refund, which was immediately refused with no reasoning. Secondly, the phone is available for purchase on the website and there is no reason not to send me an exact new one. Third, the only solution Gearbest has found is a refund of not even 1/3 of the value of the cell phone and only in US dollars, having paid in Euros. The worst experience of my life in so many purchases I have made online. The biggest scam I've ever seen. I advise no one to buy anything through Gearbest. I hope I can help people who are still considering buying with them. Save your wallet and mental health, don't do it!

I ordered face masks back in May and never received them. For the past 5 months I have had an ongoing online conversation with their support center. They give me the same information over and over. Wait or do the same things over and over with no results. My requests for a refund are n=met with wait, we are contacting the seller. Its been 5 months. Do not use this company. They do stand behind what they sell and they will not help you resolve problems. They also won't give you any information to call or write to higher ups in the company. Just the same robotic replies from customer service
