“I ordered masks necessary for the pandemic in late March and they gave me the runaround for weeks telling me they would be shipping something giving me credits for future purchases - really matching credits to get me to keep the order- I agreed... late April came, I put in numerous tickets-they falsely claimed that they have shipped, check the tracking (which was initially disabled)... when checked it just says pre shipping with the United States postal service in transit like to the shipper... not actually shipped! There is no way to check the true status, there is no third-party confirmation, it is not in the hands of a third party- this is a really screwy organization I'm shocked PayPal does payments for them that's the reason I shopped, thinking I was protected- I had to put in a PayPal escalated claim today, because these people are now ignoring my ticket from over 10 days ago- they've been claiming that the item will ship in 1 to 3 days every time, but it never did- and that I would get these items late April... it is now May! It is really wrong considering there's an emergency maybe I needed these funds for these personal protective equipment and they're just playing games they are a terrible corrupt company that tells lies continuously and never ships anything they have a bogus tracking system which is an internal tracking system which tells you in transit meaning in transit within their warehouse to a shipping facility but it's in transit for weeks to the shipping facility USPS - it's still not in the hands of the actual shipper and there is no tracking number and no way to determine what's happening and they've simply stopped replying to tickets and it is now may and I've demanded a complete refund with PayPal - these people are outrageous imagine people are exposed to the virus because these con artists want to keep playing games and somebody loses their life because these SOB's can't be truthful!”

“I placed orders on April 2nd. Order numbers 36523733 and 36523603. Have not received either order . These items are listed on their web site as being in stock with 3-5 days for delivery. Why have mine taken 30 days and now their is no record of my order on their web site. I received confirmation of payment within minutes. It took 10 days to receive confirmation of shipping Now 19 days after shipping supposedly occurred there is no record of my orders. I am not even able to reach Customer Service since they respond that I have no orders. I will need to contact my credit card company to file a claim. Stay away from Lightinthebox. Richard Wilke”

“My PPE never arrived. Lots of correspondence with company saying, “be patient” and “your order is on its way.” After a month, I contacted a supervisor. I was informed the merchandise was being returned to their warehouse, but they could reship. I have requested a refund and will be contacting my credit card company as I have no faith they will refund as instructed.”

“ON April 4th I ordered close to $400.00 of PPE from light in the box. It's now May 1 and I have NOTHING from them. I created a ticket in their system to ask about the goods and they said it would ship by April 18th. I tried to login to the website today and it says I have the wrong password. This company is a total scam and I would discourage ANYONE from ordering from them. To say this is disappointing is an understatement. I am more upset with myself that I fell into such a scam.”

“Absolutely terrible service, hidden fees. Was promised delivery within 3-6 days, not sure if will receive it after a month. Paid £23 for the shipment (purchased lights for £103) and was asked to pay custom fees of £36. Asked for the refund, as do not want such an expensive item so late and was told that I can not have refund. Will be disputing through Pay Pal. Wish and Ali Express are at least trying to resolve the issue, this site is awful. Stay away.”

“I ordered Led lights and have been waiting a month now. Still nothing, they texted me in early april saying my product has been shipped, I have heard nothing since. All I want is my led lights and I have never came across this company before, and never will go back to it. I'm sticking to amazon.”

“I'm pretty sure that this companies method of operation is to choose to not send out your item(s) until you have complained about their lateness at least three times. If you run out of patience, they keep your money and their product. The way that I found to get my merchandise was to finally go to my credit card company and tell them I was disputing the charge because the company never sent the product. Literally two days later, the item was in the mail, and it arrived three days after that. So when you take away their income, they finally fulfill their obligation. Plan to do that if you buy from them.”

“I placed three orders with this company in March 2020. I paid extra freight, and the product was advertised as “in stock“ with a 5 to 10 day delivery. Despite frequent emails requesting delivery times and updates on this product, customer service continued to give me a run around saying that the product was shipped. I made numerous requests personally contact someone to discuss this problem. All were ignored. This company has a gross lack of service, as well as performance. I highly recommend another organization. After I placed my order, I noticed that this was a common problem, Had I known previous to a place of my order I would’ve gone elsewhere. I will in the future.”

“One star is too much for this "company". They deserve 💩💩💩💩💩. LightInTheBox is a scam! My daughter ordered a mini projector back in December. It never arrived, they cancelled the order never refunded the money. On top of that, they keep sending junk email to her even though she has unsubscribed from their emails multiple times.”

“Ordered an in stock item with 3-4 business day delivery. After a month the item has yet to ship, let alone arrive and there has been no correspondence or feedback from them on when the item may actually ship, aside from "give it another week". As it has yet to arrive with any courier after a month, I am assuming the order or item was lost before sending it out to be delivered. Awful experience”

“It's a FRAUD! Don't waste your money and time for this scam business. I placed an order more than 3 weeks ago with 10-18 days delivery time confirmed. After 11 days they provided a tracking number which does not exist, it is not recognized by the shipping company. They don't respond to messages, and from today they block me from submitting a new ticket stating that "you have no orders on file", so I cannot even claim a refund. They appear to be running away with customers' money. Stay away!”
