When I ordered I already knew that this is not possible. Use common senseā€¦ Sh!t happens.
Iā€™m not saying that this is not their fault but you guys are too harsh on them. Probably some poor Chinese worker will get in huge trouble because of this. Believe me or not they are people too and you canā€™t imagine their life qualityā€¦ You knowā€¦ suicides are pretty common there.

Ban them. They have a few failed promo for Nitecore P12 and Fenix. Coupons expired way before the end date. What a waste of time.

I agree the price was impossible, but they listed it and knew perfectly well what they were doing, and people fell for it. (not the buyer's fault) I blame gearbest 100% for false and deceiving advertising. Screw them! I'll never give them my business!! The admin should ban them right now!!!

It really doesnā€™t matter if the price is impossible or not. As long as something is on their site for a price be it 100 or 1 dollar and I push the Buy button, they must deliver or present some damn good excuse for not delivering. We are not responsible for their mistakes. We did nothing wrong, we just bought in good faith. Remember, the customer is always right.

Letā€™s say, you bought a new item on ebay. The price was 100$ instead of 800$. It then turns out, that the item was stolen. So the cops knock on your door and seize the item you paid for, and donā€™t return your money. You should know something was wrong with the item or the price, but you still bought it. Thats how it works. But regarding an online purchase from a store in our country is obligatory to sell the item for the selling price ONLY when the buyer gets an conformation email. It is not enough just to click order and pay for the item and then pray that it goes through.

So, if a deal looks too good to be true, then the seller is probably not legit? Got it :slight_smile:

We canā€™t assume all bargains are stolen goodsā€¦ and all of us (i think) who bought the item received a confirmation email

I think we all knew the offer was too good to be true. We can come up with all the logic we want to justify if they should send it or not, however they have the final say and how they handle things will determine if this leads to a loss of business or not.

Will I buy again from them? Maybe. One thing is for sure. I will always think 100x before I buy something from them in the future. Not because of the product but because its THEM.

My vote would be ā€œnoā€ thus far. I ordered an F13 from the GB on 5/9. Now, 5 days later, order is still ā€œProcessingā€. Messaged themā€¦ still waiting for response.

I will remain neutral, for a short period. Got in on OL's group buy and it is "processing" still. I have no problem with long shipping times from 1/2 way round the world but how long is too long processing an order that was negotiated previously? I did add two VERY inexpensive light also. I would think that was their purpose with the GB. Getting us to their site to spend money.

These reviews all have something in common. :wink:

Without even clicking Iā€™m going to guess cheesey fake reviews? :bigsmile:

Oh, hey, Welcome to BLF?

Pl be careful when reputable members are being approached by new firms to lead a group buy. They might be merely using your good reputation to boost theirs. If deals fails to go thru well, your good reputation might be jepordized.

Iā€™ve ordered this screwdriver . 10 days later Iā€™ve noticed the order was still in ā€œprocessingā€ state. Iā€™ve contacted their CS and got a reply that they are so sorry that they didnā€™t ship it, they are so sorry itā€™s out of stock and we wonā€™t ship it. As you can see itā€™s still listed on their site and no indication that itā€™s out of stock.

Hello Pregulla,

Sorry for this problem, could you please pm me with your order#? Thanks.

Iā€™ve already contacted CS and waiting for refund. Anyway the order # is W1405160014423330
Thanks.

Ok, Thanks for your reply, but apologize for this unhappy shopping experience, hope we will improve our service better and better to you all.

This will be the last deal with them, avoid.

Hi, Nightbird95
I sought you out after reading your review of gearbest.

I simply want to know if you were asked, paid or in anyway influenced by gearbest to write your review?
My review and experience wasnā€™t as pleasant as yours.
