I purchased these v-neck tanks for the beach and honestly wasn’t expecting much, as I’ve been disappointed by some other online clothing retailers. To my surprise, they are of excellent quality, fit great and were a good value. Shipping arrived in a reasonable amount of time and communication from the company has been great. I have already ordered again from LightInTheBox and will continue to do so in the future! Highly recommend!

First rate products and selection and service all served up in class and style. 👌 Top product quality design, with great variety and value, consistent high performance, add up to a company that cares, and goes that extra mile to accommodate their customers. 😀

This dress is beautiful, and it's perfect for my performance. I'd searched all over for just the right look and am so happy I found it. At first, I was worried about using this online store that I'd never heard of before, but it kept coming up in my searches and so I went for it! So glad I did. Make sure to consult the Size Chart. Dancewear typically runs a little small, and this is no exception so be sure to measure your waist and shoulders. For reference, I am 5'5 with 17" shoulders across, 36D bust, and a 26-inch waist. The L fits perfectly.

I like the style of the men’s wear that you have, it’s just that you always have the smaller sizes, after some trials, I finally find my size in your inventory. Look forward to more of your good taste styles.

To date, I have made 4 purchases. I am very satisfied with the quality of these items. I wish I had known about this website sooner. The 2 jackets and purse are made of similar patterns. The color combinations are exquisite. The "250" Army mug is very unique.

I am practically a new customer. I had a bad experience with a package that was delivered, but someone stole it from my door. I got in touch with the Shipping Company and also with Light in The Box. I was upset, worry and disappointed. Finally, someone named Tatyana from Customer services contacted me and requested some information, after providing her with the information she needed, she apologized once again for what I went through with my order. Tatyana has a good communication skills, she showed me respect but most important she showed me empathy and because of that communication with Tatyana, I realized how responsible the Company is. I will continue making business with Light in The Box.

I made a "test" order consisting of two men's shirts using the sizing chart provided by the company. As you might predict, both shirts were smaller than the chart. Also as you might expect, customer service seems to be an AI that has been instructed to make exchanges impossible, or difficult. As I said this was a test. There will be no further orders from me.
Hi Andrei,
We’re genuinely sorry for the frustration caused during this process. We understand how disappointing it is when sizing does not meet expectations.
We would also like to clarify that we have been actively assisting you through ticket 104118689 and are currently waiting for your confirmation so we can continue with the exchange process we already started for you.
Our clothing is sold using detailed garment measurements provided directly on each product page to help customers compare with their own clothing and avoid sizing issues. After you sent us the measurement photos, we carefully reviewed them and already approved an exchange solution, including processing one exchange without requiring a return. We want to reassure you that we are absolutely trying to help and make the process as smooth as possible.
As soon as we receive your reply in the ticket, we’ll continue assisting you with the exchange right away.

Shirt was perfect size (other XL shirts from other sites had come in small). Shipping was accurate and timely (package came on the early side of the delivery window), and communication was clear. The only funky thing was that USPS tracking indicated it was COVID tests which just seemed odd.

Be cautious before ordering from this company. Their return policy is misleading — while they advertise one thing, the reality is very different once you need to make a return. After paying for shipping to receive my order, I was surprised to learn I’d also have to pay return shipping — and customer service made sure to emphasize how expensive that would be. Instead of a straightforward return, they pushed alternative “solutions” that only benefited them: a 30% refund if you spent over $100, or just 10% if you spent less — and you’re stuck keeping the item either way. On top of that, shipping times were long, and customer service was unhelpful and borderline manipulative. If you need something quickly, expect hassle-free returns, or want transparent customer service, I’d strongly recommend looking elsewhere.
Dear Deanna,
Thank you for sharing your feedback, and we’re truly sorry for the frustration caused.
We would like to clarify that we always aim to make the return process as simple and transparent as possible. For clothing items, sizing concerns can occasionally occur, which is why we provide detailed measurement charts on each product page to help customers choose the correct size in advance. In such cases, return shipping is typically the customer’s responsibility.
That said, we understand your preference to return the item, and as a gesture of goodwill, we have already offered a prepaid return label, so you do not need to pay for return shipping. Once the item is received, we will process a refund for the product price (excluding original shipping costs).
Please also note that if an item is confirmed to be faulty or not as described, we always take full responsibility and provide a complete refund, including shipping.
I have created ticket # 104123085 for your issue. The ticket message will be sent to your email related with LITB account. Please review it, we will be waiting for your response.
We appreciate your feedback, as it helps us improve both our communication and services.
Sincerely,Emma

The item I chose said it was available when I placed my order. It was not. I would have chosen a replacement but I did not understand the procedure to do so. The end result was that I wasted my time, my coupon, and the entire rest of my order was delayed.
Dear Marie,
Thank you for sharing your experience, and we’re sorry for the frustration caused.
We understand that the out-of-stock item and the exchange process were not as clear as they should have been, and we truly appreciate your feedback on this. We’re always working to improve our instructions to make things easier for our customers.
Regarding your order, after reviewing the timeline, we can confirm that the remaining items were processed and shipped within the originally estimated timeframe, and were not delayed. The coupon was also used on your order and we refunded the cancelled item to your bank account. However, we completely understand how the situation with the unavailable item may have made the overall experience feel inconvenient, and we sincerely apologize for that.
As requested, the out-of-stock item was canceled and the rest of your order was shipped within promised time frame.
We truly value your time and your order, and we’ll take your feedback into account to improve both our communication and user experience moving forward.
Kind regards,Customer Service Team

I have found so many different items from formal dresses to rugs! I discovered LightInTheBox looking for a dress for niece’s wedding and found a world of cocktail/formal attire from head to toe! A new world opened and the vendors are courteous and answer your messages quickly! This site is the cat’s meow! So easy to use. So secure. And the vendors are “customer first”.

There was no identifying which purchase I made recently I was asked to review. I bought a couple of simple dresses recently as well as a pair of capris. The pants were fine, the dresses also, but on dresses and tops there are usually no darts to accommodate larger busts and I find the midi length matronly and have to re-hem them.

LightInTheBox was extremely easy to use. Their designs were really better than any other website that I'd seen before. But the shipping is way too high since it's coming from overseas. I've used LightInTheBox twice and I had an issue with my first order. But they were very easy to communicate with. I ordered a man's sweater, and it came in a size for a kid. I explained that to them, and they said I couldn't send it back. I argued with them back and forth through the internet, but they ended up giving me only half of my money back, and they told me to keep the shirt.

my valuable time when you charged me for an item I never received. It costs me less to keep the useless merchandise. Thier advertising is deceptive and procedures for correcting mistakes are designed to place the labor and expense on the buyer. They should not be allowed to sell merchandise online.
Dear Ed,
Thank you for your feedback, and we’re truly sorry for the frustration this situation has caused.
After reviewing your case, we understand that the concern relates to the length of the coat not matching expectations. As part of our quality control process, we may request photos showing the item’s measurements compared to the size chart listed on the product page. This step allows us to verify potential discrepancies with the supplier and, when confirmed, helps us offer a resolution such as a full refund without requiring a return.
We understand that this may feel like an extra step, however it is designed to avoid additional cost and effort for our customers when a quality issue can be confirmed directly. That said, customers can always choose to return the item for a refund. In such cases, if a discrepancy is confirmed during inspection, we can also review and support the return costs accordingly.
I have created ticket # 104115606 for your issue. The ticket message will be sent to your email related with LITB account. Please review it, we will be waiting for your response.
We appreciate your feedback and are continuously working to improve both our products and processes.

DO NOT BUY ANYTHING FROM THIS COMPANY! The product was not delivered!!! As a first-time buyer, I placed my faith in this company but was screwed over. They sent an email saying it was delivered and I went outside right away to find no package. LightInTheBox has offered no evidence of delivery, just "their word". In 20 years at my address, neither I nor my neighbors have ever had any packages stolen. They are not showing any integrity but trying to gaslight me and denying any responsibility. What recourse do online purchasers have if a company is disreputable? This is why this is likely my last non-Amazon online purchase. For all of its flaws, at least they care about customer service. Again, please DO NOT BUY ANY PRODUCTS FROM THIS COMPANY> I usually never buy online clothing for just this concern.

I love shopping with LightInTheBox!!! I have purchased a lot of Evening gowns, dresses and pants sets. They are fast shippers, and prices are great. They have really good Flash Sales. You need to make sure you look at their sizing charts. The measurements are pretty much right. Your size will probably be a little bigger than you normally wear.

I ordered their electric nail clipper for my husband. The advertisement said it was for finger and toenails and had an automatic nail collection feature. It did not work on my husband's toenails, and the automatic nail collection feature did not work. Before I bought it I looked at their return policy: "LightInTheBox hopes you will be satisfied with every purchase you make, but in some cases, a customer may want to return an item. You'll need to review our return policy to confirm whether the product is eligible for return (Return Policy: http://litb.cc/l/suWo). For items that are returnable, please follow the steps below to proceed with the return." When I let them know of the problem with the item, they DISCOURAGED me from returning it, as they revealed I would need to pay $10-$40 to return it to SINGAPORE! Despite it not working. They told me to take a picture, but there is nothing to photograph, it's a piece of junk.
Dear Barbara,
Hi, thank you for leaving a comment, and we’re sorry to hear about your experience.
We would like to clarify that a return option was provided and explained, including detailed instructions to proceed with a return solution to a U.S. address to help reduce the inconvenience and cost typically associated with international returns.
At the time of your request, no specific product defect was confirmed, and the concern raised was related to product performance expectations. In such cases, we are not able to offer a free prepaid return shipping label.
We understand this situation has been frustrating, and we want to reassure you that the case is currently under review with your payment provider. We will fully cooperate with the process to ensure a fair resolution.
Customer satisfaction remains very important to us, and we are always here to assist should you wish to continue working with us directly.

There was a problem with two shirts I ordered and appeared to be smaller than shown in the size chart. Silvia was the customer care person and was most helpful and understanding when informed there was a serious problem with my internet. She told me not to worry as she would be there when I needed her. Silvia gave me instructions on what type of picture was required for her to be able to check the size which I sent to her. The shirts were indeed smaller than the size in the chart and she offered to have them replaced with ones that were larger as per my size request. Silvia was always prompt in her responses and very professional and reassuring regarding customer care. Silvia is definitely worth a 5 star review. Thank you.

Terrible. I was just though the ringer with customer service. They don't honor returns. It's drop shipping, and to return you have to arrange shipping back to China, then prove the package arrived. And then maybe you get your money back, minus original shipping and shipping insurance. By the time you're done that, even if they actually refund you, you've paid as much in shipping. They offer a measly 10% off for you to keep the product instead of attempting the return. This company is garbage. The clothes are cheap, and not as appearing on the site.

Thank you for your feedback. We’re sorry to hear that your experience did not meet expectations.
We would like to clarify that we do support returns and refunds in accordance with our return policy, and we always aim to provide practical solutions based on each situation. In many cases, we first request the details of the return, as part of our process to verify issues with the supplier, which can often allow us to offer a replacement or full refund without requiring a return. In this case, we have since reviewed the situation and arranged an improved solution, including a return option to a local warehouse with a prepaid label to make the process easier.
We understand that return processes can sometimes feel inconvenient, especially with international orders, and we are continuously working to improve this experience. Our goal is always to provide fair resolutions while minimizing effort and cost for our customers.
