Nice products I can't find in my home country, or are too expensive. This makes me come back.

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.

I originally posted a review about a week+ ago out of frustration of having very poor customer service. Since then I have had various communications with Gearbest which have left me with a more positive experience. I eventually received a full refund for the incorrect item and Gearbest told me to keep the incorrect item they sent to me which I told them I am donating to a local community services agency.

Lo shop ha una grande varietà di articoli, in particolare tecnologici e i prezzi sono buoni. Non è affidabile per i tempi di consegna, ho dovuto aspettare più di un mese invece dei 15 giorni indicati nel sito.

Ordered a product with a 5 days delivery. Got my money back after 7 weeks from Paypal without any comment from Gearbest. After 9 weeks i received a mail from Gearbest, saying, that the product was lost and that i will get the money back:-) Conclusion: The product was, at the moment of the sale, not in Europe. It was from the beginning impossible to deliver within 5 days. Bad seller = LIFE SMART ROBOT Store The good: got my money back without any discussions!

The Gearbest GWallet: I cannot gain access to the GWallet or create a password. Gearbest are completly unhelpful apart from providing instructions that don't work for me. They give the impression that they wish to set a precedent by being helpful which is a pity because I find them good people to deal with.

Great prices, no buyer protection. Only 21 day warranty. Some manufacturers won't offer a Gearbest supplied device with an international warranty.

I ordered a mobile phone from GearBest (Order no. W1710200421037120) and paid for expedited shipping via DHL, plus shipping insurance and tracking. When I ordered, their website showed 29 units in stock at their HK2 warehouse. It was one of their flash deals, so included some discount. It has been 5 days since payment made ans still no shipping or tracking number received. I contacted them and was told the phone is on back order and should ship within the next 14 days. NOT ACCEPTABLE. I was also given the option of picking another model, or refund. From other reviews on GearBest, it seems refunds take more than a month and sometimes never arrive. Let's see how GearBest handles this problem, so please watch this space for updates soon.

They've updated their servers, at least that's what they told me, and while doing so deleted all the accounts. So you have to register again. Which wouldn't be so bad, but even if you do, all the info is gone. All your orders, customer support tickets, refunds, GB points, G-Wallet... all of it is gone. So, if you had any money from a refund in your account GONE, and they're not willing to refund it. Essentially they've stolen your money, and there's not a single thing you can do about it. At least that's the gist I got from the support until they stopped responding. At least I didn't loose that much like some people have. Same thing with any recent orders. If you haven't gotten the item, there's a high chance you aren't going to. Even if you do receive something, it's either going to be a random thing, or a broken POS that you can't return or claim warranty on. Best thing you can do is request a refund from you bank/paypal/credit card and report them for scamming. STAY AWAY OR THEY WILL SCAM YOU ! Report them as such and choose another store to do business with.

Refund made difficult although defect item arrivedIl Rimborso è stato difficile anche se l'articolo difettoso è arrivato I have bought a smartphone as a christmas present for my daughter. It arrived after 3.5 weeks from China, but after trying to install my apps it became clear via messages by my provider, that the phone has been bricked, and there was not data connection to the internet via the sim card. I have tried 4 weeks to receive help from the seller. They claimed it was the mistake of my provider or my sim card. After contacting the provider, the main Italian network provider "TIM"(Telecom Italia Mobile) several times by telephone, who checked the connections in my area, I was told that the connectivity was ok and that there must be a problem with my telephone. So I took the phone to a tecnician of a "Centro Tim", who checked my sim card, with three different new telephones, and confirmed, that the phone was the problem, not the sim. I have now opened a dispute via paypal, since the company offering now to refund me 10% of the paid costs, me loosing 90%, nearly €100. This unacceptable, I can understand that an item is damaged or has some problem, it is not the first time, but usually also the chinese sellers refund/replace the item when it is obvious that they have made the mistake. However not Gearbest, at the beginning of a conflict the promise to help fast and make "the valued customer" happy, but they just try to make it so difficult for the customer, that most people will not try to get a refund. Luckily I am protected by paypal. This is my 4th smartphone, that I buy directly from China, but it is my first experience with gearbest, it was my nightmare over Christmas trying to make it work. Better do not touch gearbest, if you do not want such a negative experience. Ho comprato uno smartphone come regalo di Natale per mia figlia. È arrivato dopo 3,5 settimane dalla Cina, ma dopo aver provato a installare le mie app è diventato chiaro tramite i messaggi del mio provider che il telefono era stato bloccato e non c'era connessione dati a Internet tramite la scheda SIM. Ho provato 4 settimane per ricevere aiuto dal venditore. Hanno affermato che è stato un errore del mio provider o della mia scheda SIM. Dopo aver contattato più volte telefonicamente il provider, il principale operatore di rete italiano "TIM" (Telecom Italia Mobile), che ha verificato le connessioni nella mia zona, mi è stato detto che la connettività era ok e che doveva esserci un problema con il mio telefono. Così ho portato il telefono da un tecnico di un "Centro Tim", che ha controllato la mia scheda sim, con tre diversi telefoni nuovi, e ha confermato che il problema era il telefono, non la sim. Ora ho aperto una controversia tramite paypal, dato che l'azienda si offre ora di rimborsarmi il 10% delle spese pagate, perdendo il 90%, quasi 100€. Questo è inaccettabile, posso capire che un articolo è danneggiato o ha qualche problema, non è la prima volta, ma di solito anche i venditori cinesi rimborsano/sostituiscono l'articolo quando è evidente che hanno commesso l'errore. Tuttavia non Gearbest, all'inizio di un conflitto promette di aiutare velocemente e rendere felice "il cliente stimato", ma cercano solo di renderlo così difficile per il cliente, che la maggior parte delle persone non cercherà di ottenere un rimborso. Per fortuna sono protetto da paypal. Questo è il mio quarto smartphone, che compro direttamente dalla Cina, ma è la mia prima esperienza con Gearbest, è stato il mio incubo a Natale cercando di farlo funzionare. Meglio non toccare gearbest, se non vuoi un'esperienza così negativa.
