told item shipped
To Whom it May Concern!
I have emailed this company Light in a box three times, no response. I've even tried to chat with William and a pop-up keeps stating come back in 5 mins. This has been going on for the last couple of weeks now. I rec'd an email on March 31, 2010 stating that my items have shipped. I went on the website to search for a tracking #. The # s not valid. I ordered on March 20, 2010, the Gorgeous Clear Crystals Wedding Bridal Jewelry Set (DT9010), Including Necklace, Earings and Tiara. My wedding is coming soon. I requested a response and rec'd nothing. No email from that company. I AM GOING TO CONTACT MY BANK AND BETTER BUSINESS BUREAU TO FIND OUT WHAT ELSE I COULD DO TO RESOLVE THIS ISSUE. I NEED A RESPOND AND SOON. COULD SOME ONE PLEASE TELL ME HOW TO CONTACT THIS COMPANY?

Product can't pass customs
We are out $120 because they won't respond to requests regarding customs, and they also will not return any emails & no phone # for customer service.

FROM UPS:
The above shipment was held by US Customs for IPR copyright authorization from Coolmax. We have been trying to contact the shipper for the trademark authorization letter from Coolmax, but the shipper (Light in the Box) is not responding. US Customs will not allow this shipment to be returned to the shipper if no one can provide a letter stating the items are authentic. The only option is to abandon and destroy shipment unless you can get the letter.

SERVICE
BOUGHT MY DAUGHTER A MP-3 PLAYER ON-LINE. GOT IT, HAS NEVER WORKED. INSTRUCTIONS LOOK THEY WERE WRITTEN BY A THREE YEAR OLD. COMPUTER CAN'T EVEN RECOGNIZE THE DEVICE. ON THE WEBSITE, THERE IS NO NUMBER ANYWHERE AND NO ONE WILL ANSWER E-MAILS, BUT THEY TOOK OUR MONEY!!!

Scam
Want to throw your money away real fast and get frustrated at the same time? Order something from Lightinthebox (dot com)! They are a Chinese company that lures internet shoppers with fantastic deals. I had to gamble with them because I couldn't find a video door phone anywhere at a decent price. My first hesitation was having to use my PayPal account. Stupid me. But for $140 (compared to $500 elsewhere), I bit the bullet. They put emphasis on pre-sales promises, so you feel good until you commit your money.

Product that arrived didn't even have a U.S. compatible plug. It took weeks of delayed email back and forth to clear that one little mistake they made. It took more weeks for them to ship an adapter. It took still more weeks of slow, delayed, annoyingly bottom priority email that they hardly read or understand to get a tracking number for the adapter. Sorry but they got your money already. You get the slowest parcel post mail without tracking. In the meantime, they repeatedly send you the refund form to fill out because that's they first reaction. Or maybe they're so used to it. But you won't get your $40 shipping cost refunded. And you have to pay your own $40 shipping to send the item back. And they won't refund until they get back their crappy item.

Lo and behold, the rinky *** power adapter arrives. It's the cheapest plastic thingy ever. And still, the device does not work. It compares to a pop-up toy that comes out of a gumball machine. So yes I have to consider shipping it back at my cost because there's no warranty.

I'm a loser. I gambled, and I lost.

Terrible Service/Product
Terrible experience. The dress I received is nothing like what was pictured; the picture showed a stretch satin dress with beading. I received a dress with a non-stretch satin with a tacky lace overlay and sequins. There was a tear in the skirt area. Contacting the company is not possible as they are in China and list no phone numbers. The website has a live chat option that is only for pre-sales questions and cannot direct to a further source of communication. Sending emails grants you a generic macro-ed email response that has nothing to do with what you have asked/stated. Terrible experience.

Credit Card Theft
My Mastercard provider called me as someone tried to use my card number via Light In The Box.com for over $1500.00. The card is now cancelled. Beware.

Rip Off
This company is a classic online ripoff operation. They sell merchandise at cut-rate prices that is designed to look like it works -- but NOTHING WORKS. It's all a gimmick. The electronics are not even supplied with some of their merchandise -- just a casing that looks real.

They are an online scam outfit that flourishes off first-time buyers who are deceived by the front that they put up online. You can't find them. You can't call them. You can't get a refund. You can't get a return. All you get is screwed. In my case, I lost several hundred dollars. It was the worst online experience of my life.

You'll never find anyone out there who ever goes near Light In the Box again. AVOID THEM LIKE THE PLAGUE. Stick to major retailers who can actually be held accountable.

rip-off company
DO NOT DO BUSINESS WITH LIGHT-IN-THE-BOX!!!

I ordered an Anime costume from this company, paid extra for the package that included the matching slippers; included FREE Shipping. When the package arrived, slippers were missing (rejected by US Customs), and UPS needed $20.75 for shipping charges (brokerage fees? because the package originated in China).

UPS tells me if LITB had ordered a different shipping/billing method, I would not be been billed the extra $20.75.

When I try to contact LITB, i get an unmaned phone # (no voice mail, just "call back later). When the order was placed, I received an email from my "customer service rep", I tried to contact him. His reply: contact LITB!!

LITB says they will send new slippers --what good will that do?! If the first pair were rejected by customs, I'm sure the 2wnd pair will be too! And they didn't say a word about the UPS shipping charges.

UPS has be a bit ticked off as well, as the driver told me proof of these shipping charges would be online, through the tracking number. There is no such proof. Its taken me several phone calls and numerous transfers to get anything from UPS --everyone I talked to there says there is nothing available to proof that this was billed to me and that I paid it. HOw can a big co. like UPS not be able to print an invoice for their shipping charges?! I finally got a screen shot of the charges. But from what I've read about LITB, I doubt that is going to help. Sounds like I'm just SOL.

DO NOT DO BUSINESS WITH LIGHT-IN-THE-BOX!!!

Still have not received refund
I purchase a cell phone from this company back in December of 2008. After several e-mails and such they assured me that it would work. When I recieved this phone (which was a present for my daughter) I look at it and it looked like it was new. Well when we went to get this cell phone up and running it would not work. Then I relized it was a used cell phone. The manual had writing in it and such. I contacted this place about it and within the 7 day returned policy. I shipped it back in Jan. after a ton of emails back and forth they quit responding. It is May now I still havent received my refund of over $200.00 yet. I would suggest that nobody does buiness with this company.If you do BEWARE
