“Definitely a scam!! Ordered items, money deducted..was advised it would take 14 days to be shipped and now I've received an email saying my order hasn't been shipped because it was in high demand in the whole market plus they couldn't find a supplier to ship the items. Bunch of nonsense really! DO NOT PURCHASE anything!! Now chasing my refund and best of luck to me if I get that.”

“I ordered a dress. The dress came with no tag and something similar to a dry-cleaner receipt. The dress in reality has nothing of the elegance and flawlessness of the one on the website: the design presents terrible flaws along the sides over the hips and its size isn’t a real S as ordered, but rather a L. I ask for the return form thinking of dealing with a serious company. The following is the one and only answer from costumer service: “ As for your case, in order to avoid any hassle for returning, we'd like to offer you a 30% Reward of the items' price as compensation, which you can use on your next order to get discounted price. Or we'd like to refund you 15% of the item price and you don't need to return the item back. We wonder if any of these solutions will be more acceptable and convenient for you rather then return?” I answered very politely that I have no use for the item they sent because it isn’t what I ordered, because it is too big and because missing the tag and having attached that receipt, I am not sure that the dress is even new. Unfortunately, Costumer Service never got back to me on the matter. There is no return, only more buying. DON’T BE SCAMED!”

“Ordered several clothes none of which fit on 3 separate occasions. When tried to return was told to keep clothes because was too expensive to return to China. I checked with the post office and they confirmed it would cost more to return them then the cost of the clothes themselves. While I was trying to resolve the issue with first 3 orders, I receive a fourth shipment which I never ordered & the contents were duplicates of what I already had. I contacted customer service which u can only leave message for. They asked for picture of shipping label which I sent, then they charged my credit card for this unrequested order with no response to my request to return. I’m out over $500 until my credit card resolves. Do not trust this company”

“Buyers beware of this website, it's a scam. I ordered a hat on the 29th and money was deducted from my account on the 30th /03/22. Up until now I haven't received any confirmation report or receipt for the hat I bought, no correspondent from the website whatsoever. I was scammed of my hard earned €73. 00. Be warned.”

“Dreadful company. They advertise items that are not in stock.Take your money and promise that it will be in stock in s couple of days. It's hard to get a truthful answer. After over 4 weeks, my item was still unavailable so lucky for me I did then receive a refund. I would NOT touch this company with a barge pole even though they advertise reasonable priced items. Simply awful experience from beginning to end.”

“Buyer Beware!! Light in the box was the worst experience I have ever had purchasing online. They claim you can return within their parameters but they do not give you the opportunity to return items. I was offered 20% of my order which was never credited to my account. Merchandise is not of good quality. I will never purchase from this company again…”

“This has been the worst experience my mom has had with this company. She purchased a dress that was little over 300 dollars and the dress came in defective. The website and app do not let you return anything until they process the request for return first. You only have 7 days. We are going into 6 days now begging for address to return the defective expensive dress for refund and nobody is helping us out. They give you 3 options to pick from and every time you say you want to return it gets ignored. Even after filing the complaint the customer service supervisor gives you option of keeping the dress or returning, she said as soon as you choose they will process your request and when we choose the option to return she never responded back. It has been 4 days now since we last heard from anyone. We have never ever had so many problems trying to get the money back for something they sent us defective. I suggest stay far away from this company. It has been a nightmare and worst experience in the world and the worst thing is they take advantage of people and they ignore you. They drag your request on until you no longer are left with any days to return. What company only gives you 7 days and they never respond to you. It is sad that they treat their customers like that.”

“Estimated delivery for orders was 7-10 days. It took a whole week to simply process my order, and I am now three weeks out from the date that I have ordered and my product is still on the other side of the world. Customer service is horrific, avoid ordering with this company.”

“i received two tops in XL that were small enough to fit my 5 year old daughter. I am thin.. but even I couldn't fit in the tops. not to mention that they are VERY VERY cheaply made. so much that the seams are pulling apart before even trying it on. HORRIBLE HORRIBLE PLACE TO ORDER ANYTHING FROM .”

“The size was not even close to accurate. The quality of the fabric and dye was terrible. Shipping costs are so high. I threw the skirt away and counted this purchase as a lesson learned.”

“The T-shirt’s I ordered were most certainly not the shirts on your website. The T-shirt’s I received had sleeves that were do disproportionate that I need to wear a shirt under this shirt, otherwise my entire bra/“side breast” is completely exposed. These shirts are not wearable and will be taken to Goodwill. This website is a bait and switch website. The clothing you think you’re getting is absolutely not the merchandise you receive! The original order does not mention its coming from China. Buyer beware!!! I’m out $100. Lesson learned. STAY FAR AWAY FROM ORDERING FROM THIS COMPANY!!!”

“LughtingtTheBox is a huge scam. Ripped blouses with crooked buttons were shipped. The problem with sending back the wrong items, the possibility of sending back the items to China only for a fee and these are huge costs. If you want to return the goods, you must send them to China at your own expense. And so, it is not known whether it will arrive or the package will not be lost, or they will mock that they have not received it or that it will be damaged with the package, and it is the courier's fault. I lost my money(€120). Avoid a wide berth !!!”
