Announcement: Gearbest Customer Service on BLF-CSgearbest

good move!

Do you know what happened to the Sipik SK98 I won in this giveaway two months ago? I never received it! Tracking no# stopped working long time ago…

Very cool, glad to see you here. Looking forward to doing business with you some more. I also hope to see you guys expand your flashlight selection. The prices you have on what you have in stock seem really good.

good move… if I may suggest, maybe need some improvement in handling and shipping…
more than 7 days to shipped it after the goods was purchased is not efficient and this is not even including shipping time which takes another 3 weeks :expressionless:

Thanks for your kind and useful suggestion, we are trying to be faster for shipping now, and about the shipping time, we can’t control that any more since it depends on which logistics. If you know some faster shipping way, please kindly recommend to us, we will appreciate indeed :slight_smile:

Hi GearBest, a quick question.

Why is it that not all areas of your website is SSL-Enabled by default? It appears your entire website in one way or another supports SSL but your routing and links provided does not default to encrypted connections. This was really apparent during the checkout stage of ordering. The lack of SSL extends to places like your web messaging/ticket system.

GearBest isn’t the only Chinese online seller to do this; BangGood too is like this. Out of all the sites I’ve ordered from these past couple of weeks, FastTech is the only website I would call acceptable. In fact, the entire process from ordering to seeing a picture of the package before it was shipped out has been fantastic. Whether the product is good or not is a separate issue.

we buy enough products, we might be able to charter a plane. Flight plan: do a loop to the airports closest to the distributors, and come back to us via europe. total time: under a week for everyone involved.

one can wish…

Hello Sirius9,

We apologize for this problem, but once the package shipped, we can’t control it any more, it’s on the hand of the logistics, we will contact the logistics if they can provide some useful info to us, once we got the info, I will pm you, ok? Thanks.

Hello zizouuu,

Thanks for your notice, I forward your info to our CS, hope you don’t mind our unexpected pm for this matter, thanks.

Thanks for your kind reminder, yes, that’s correct :slight_smile:

Hello Gearbest,

I just noticed I lost quite some Gearbest points without spending them. Looking in the “points used” section, it appears that there was like an annual reset and the points have limited validity which I was not aware of.
It would be convenient if customers received a warning e-mail like a month, a week, then a day before the reset. Or perhaps a large flashing sign when logged in warning about the points soon to expire would alert the customer as well.
So it’s a bit of a bummer I lost points, but other than that I’m very happy with Gearbest.
Cheers!

I don’t know what happened in your case but I did receive the warning and it wasn’t the only place I saw it.

I also received email warning! March 10 and before that same email on January 10…

This happens every year and it is clearly announced, both via email, app banners, here or other forums and everywhere. Only points accrued before 10/31 will be deducted though.

I lost 3.00 $US in points, not a big deal - if you look at the new price surge, increased shipping costs and generally the higher effort to even find worthy deals… I might not even need points going forward.

That’s helpful Hunter, thank you. It appears that mail is sent from “newsletter@edm.gearbest.com”, but I have unsubscribed myself from receiving any news letter, as it was just (mostly non flashlight) advertising. Perhaps this is the reason.

I don’t get this, what do you mean?

Edit: So the expiration date is the same for everyone, that’s why no one receives a personal mail. I think I got it now.

Yes, we have had the discussion every year. The previous points expire for everyone who keeps them. Many loyalty systems are like this, they assume if you don’t use points in a very long time they can no longer extend the courtesy of applying them.
Frequent flyer miles are sometimes also like that, there are basic ones (that don’t expire) but also miles that are only valid for 1 year. Same with orbitz for hotel booking points, etc
