Light In The Box return policy on order [protected]

One of the main reasons I finally purchased was due to your "commitment" to customer satisfaction. I ordered a men's large size. Upon receipt it does not represent what I usually see as a large size. After receiving the product, I go on line and your return policy basically says it'll cost too much to send back through Asian customs. Why not take 10% for your order. That is terrible. That is not about a company who is aligned to customer satisfaction. I will never order again!

Light In The Box 3 shirts I order for my husband are not the same as the picture of your web site

These shirts were ordered on 24/01/23 Ordered three shirts $119.99. Two came last week. One still not here. Shirts that came poor quality, stitching is terrible, lots of flaws. No labels with fabric or instructions. Suppose to be a knit polo shirt, not same as picture. Knitted cuffs and waistband were ordered. One has a white thread sewed in shelve mark on sleeve where dye did not take
Very disappointed. Still never got third shirt, but it would be no better than the first two
I ordered January 24, 2023. Order #[protected]
Payment by Visa.

Desired outcome: Please refund to resolve this issue I will return to a Canada address

Light In The Box Led ceiling light

I received the item damaged. I contacted customer support and they wanted me to pay for the shipping back. It could be a lot and I contacted them again and told them that. They said they were going to refund me. Then a couple of days after when I didn't see it in my account I contacted them again. They said that it was damaged during installation that is what their supplier said. We never took it out of the box. It hasn't been installed or anything. I sent several pictures and they haven't replied back. They closed my support ticket. Scam is what they are.

Desired outcome: I want my money back.

Dear customer,
Sorry to hear that the product does not fit while you ordered according to our size chart.

If you submitted multiple return request tickets, please understand that we'll take care of them all together so we'll merge them into this ticket only.
If you want to return for a replacement for another size, you only need to cover the return postage, we'll pay for the reshipment shipping fee for you. For this solution, please check the size chart on the product page and reply to us here with which size you want, we'll send the return instruction to you later.
For the return postage, our tailors/suppliers are willing to cover it if they made the product in the wrong size. So we need your cooperation to provide us with some photos to confirm the size issue, please reply to this ticket with the following information.
1. Please check this file first:
https://litb.cc/l/tA1a. Then please provide us the measurements of the item you received.

You just need to do a "easy click" on the related link and our system will do all the follow-up. No need to reply to this ticket/email or the system will miss your choice.
Quick solution: no need to return, keep the item with a partial refund or a reward. Just click on the option link you want, we'll send it to you in 1 business day.
Aimage :
50% reward (eg. If the item costs $100, you can get a $50 reward, which is the same as a coupon)

Light In The Box Light in the box customer service

I ordered 2 shirts and received 1 not as described, I told them I wanted to return it, never heard back and they canceled the 2nd shirt and kept my money for both shirts. I have tried to contact several times and no response. This company should not be shut down. After reading all the reviews I don't understand how they can continue doing this to people.

Desired outcome: My refund and this company shut down for ripping off consumers

Light In The Box Scam - impossible to return

On January 6 I placed an order for three dresses because I read the fine print refund policy which said if orders are returned within two weeks we’re good to go. I ordered three dresses off the rack to try on, amounting to over $500 in total.

They arrived too late for the event and I wanted to return all of them unopened. Went online and started the return process. It was cumbersome, but I did it.

I was told to wait for an email “approving my return”. My return was not approved. Their reason (they pulled this out of a hat) was that my dresses were “customized.”

I am still out $500, the big bag of dresses taking up space in my apartment and no return address or their assurance that they’ll take it back.

Desired outcome: I WANT MY MONEY BACK!!!!!

Light In The Box 3 dresses

Wed 21/12/2022 I purchased 3 dresses from Light in the box.
Order Number [protected].
All dresses ordered were the same style and I deliberately ordered larger sizes than I require, ensuring a loose fit.

- all three dresses were sized way too small to even get on
- one dress was not even the style ordered.
- none of the dresses had the sleeve style advertised
- none of the dresses had the same soft fall fabric as they pictured.

I complained and asked for a full refund with a return of the dresses but have not had any success with them - only silence.

As they failed to provide what I ordered, I expect a full refund of what they charged me, including the delivery fee.

Desired outcome: I will return the dresses to the Australian address they were sent to me from and expect a refund of the full amount I paid them

Buyers beware! You will not get your money back if you don’t like the look or feel of the dress you buy from Light in the Box. Might be ok for the small ticket things, but for a semi-formal gown, that’s a lot of $$ down the drain.

Light In The Box Refund policy

Stupidly, I didn’t realize this company was trading in Asia as the delivery took weeks.
The item I ordered was too tight in the sleeves, and there was no Size Guide recommended for sleeves on their website.
On asking for a refund, I enclosed photos and measurements of the sleeve as requested.
I have sent 2 follow-up email and have had no response. I do not want a % refund or a coupon, I want a refund.
Perhaps my next step should be full ‘publicity’ on social media for maximum reader response

Desired outcome: Full regund

Light In The Box Product/return policy

Product ordered was NOT as depicted on web site, sizing was wrong, zipper on wrong side and RETURN policy was terrible. I was told to RETURN the item to ASIA, at the cost of $20.00 - $ 30.00 dollars. This was almost as much as I payed for the item. Buyer should be aware of deceptive practices and VERY poor return policy.

YUCK Gave the item to a thrift store.

Desired outcome: Make others aware of this fraudulent company.

Light In The Box Made to order return policy

In late December, I ordered three clothing items from Light In The Box website. I ordered them in a size offered (per their size guide) and a color offered.

When I received the items this week, each one was too small and I am not able to wear them. When I went to the website to return them, I was horrified and shocked to learn they were non-refundable. The reason being they were classified as "made to order". Never did I provide my personal measurements to order these items so I do not understand how they could consider these to be "made to order" just for me.

When I went in to investigate, I see that far below the "add to cart" icon, there is a made to order note which reads as follows: This is a Made to Order item, which is produced one by one. All sizes and color choices, including all custom measurements, require additional tailoring time.

Again, I never provided my measurements and I see if I had they would have charged me an additional 17.99 fee. No where did it say that the items were non-refundable.

The total of these items is 400, which is a large amount of money to me. I work hard for my money, so now I am out 400 and stuck with three outfits I cannot wear.

I have ordered many clothing items on line due to my busy work schedule and never has something not been refundable. That is the whole purpose of shopping on line rather in the store knowing that you can return the item if needed since you are not trying it on in person.

Light in the Box certainly did not made it clear when ordering that this was the case. I believe many people would not order these items (including me) if I had known they were non-refundable.

I'll take responsibility for not reading "below the add to cart line"; which still did not state they were non-refundable; however, I want to share my experience so that others do not make the same mistake.

I will never order from this company again and would not recommend anyone else to either.

Desired outcome: Full Refund

Light In The Box Suit

I am horrified that this company is still going! At no point in this transaction have i given measurements for it to be ‘tailored’ or ‘made to order’. But they have said that i cannot have a refund because it was in this category!

I have ordered a size and colour that was already advertised on the website, with no information above the ‘add to basket’ that it was one of those items. (Why would i look any further down than that?)

Also, as i have gone back to investigate, nothing in the ‘made to order’ drop box, does it say anything about the returns policy of these items.

Desired outcome: A full refund on my items!!

Light In The Box Related to the supply in the UK of 2 articles of clothing, since returned - to China! Order no [protected]

Supply and return were both in the last week. But the focus of my complaint is that I have never received any documents (eg invoice) which support the transaction. I have been unable to identify the corporate identity and details of the supplier with who I am in contract. My email enquiries are answered as though by a thick robot and without human involvement.
I do not know the authority of the COMPLAINTS BOARD (if any). I suspect I am unlikely to receive the refund promised and in that event should like to know the identity of my resulting debtor. Thank you, Julian Vallance.

Light In The Box Men fleece sweatpants joggers

Ordered two of the men fleece sweatpants joggers 01-05-2023, the cost $7.99 a piece. A white pair 1x and yellow pair1x. Ordered seven more of the same men fleece joggers the next day01-06-2023. Well I got confirmation on the ones I ordered 01-06-2023 and shipping info, but not for the two I ordered 01-05-2023. They also over charged my credit card…the price for the two men fleece sweatpants joggers $7.99 plus taxes and shipping fee. Well the math on the taxes for shipping fee is not $50.83 for two pants

Desired outcome: Just want the othe two men fleece sweatpants joggers to come with my other order. White pair and yellow pair 1x. That’s all…and the right math for the price of them.

Light In The Box Shirt arrived damaged in the production process

I have ordered numerous shirts from Lightinthebox, and noticed that the colors often did not match the photos. But the last straw was when I received a shirt I ordered that had a large white slash across the front where the patterned print was missing (as if the shirt went through the dying process with this spot wrinkled). Being a naive American accustomed to excellent customer service, I assumed getting an exchange or refund would be easy.

I began their refund process and sent photos of the shirt and pointed to their online record of my purchase. Not good enough. They demanded that I also photo the box it came in and the invoice. It came in a bag which I had thrown away. I politely responded that I no longer had the box, asking why I needed to jump through hoops when they have an online record of my purchase? Who else sells this merchandise?
I was ghosted after this. No response to any email I sent to the original address.
These people couldn't care less if a customer is blown off, even when the problem is the company's fault.

Most American firms would have a final Quality Assurance process to ensure that each shirt was in excellent condition for shipping. Not this company! They just don't care.
So be happy if you get what you ordered because if you don't, you are pretty much stuck with the merchandise. Oh! Even if you make it through the Return process, they demand that you mail the defective product back to China at YOUR expense! Never again.

Rhetorical question: Doesn't this Chinese company have enough intelligence to realize this brutal treatment of customers in the USA will not be accepted? I bought a lot of things there. NEVER AGAIN! Not immediately refunding the cost of a faulty item is outrageous! Why do I have to send it all the way back, to China, so they can ship it to someone else?

Desired outcome: Refund Order: [protected] #9270318 USD $24.99
