I placed two orders which, after almost 70 days, never arrived. I had good communication with Gearbest and they refunded all of my money through PayPal without an issue. I was pretty impressed, but won’t chance another order.
My singpost ones have arrived.
Oh, this scares me. Nitecore EA11 in transit from GB now. I just finished an ugly dispute with another Chinese vendor yesterday. It was resolved in my favor but who know’s, it could have gone either way. I’ve about decided that saving a few bucks ain’t worth the hassle and wait times that comes with most of these Chinese vendors.
i order since over 10 years from alibabe never had any trouble if something was missing 2 times out of far over 200 orders i got ful l refund without any problems one i had a deffect i got a replacement also without any hesitation. fast tech 5 orders never any issues dx 3 orders no issue banggood over 10 orders no issue.
never had any issues with china post i prefer it over DHL dhl here act as customs they will charge you import duties regardsless customs check it or not which normal post never does.
i suspect GB makes offers to low then never ships them then off you 50% if you have no insurance so they still make a biz i guess why they would prefer in my case full refund over resend item???
My two missing orders ( one knife, one tablet cover) were sent with china post…
I dislike having to use China post. Tracking numbers from them are often useless, and more often than not packages camp in HK for many days before leaving.
I have only ordered a few times from Gearbest back when courui DO1 first came out, and all of my orders did arrive. I almost always use what ever shipping upgrades are offered though. Gear best has a couple that are dirt cheap in my opinion.
3-7 day priority ( zero dollars in my case)
And express for only $12.
I always use the $10-12 upgrade when I order from banggood too and if I order more than like a hundred bucks from Hank I PM him hand have it sent DHL.
Costly you say? Perhaps, but is it more costly than lost packages? Not for this cat
Looks like GB have made tracking mandatory?
No nothing has changed.
I suggest combine orders and add tracking.
I bought this xtar VC4 charger for amazing price from gearbest http://www.gearbest.com/chargers/pp_160440.html
I just calculated total price of this charger from a famous store I see on forum located in the usa… it is 47.85 including 17.95$ shipping.
Thanks a lot gearbest for these competitive prices and amazing deals!
Somehow, when I checked in with my account, it added tracking number for me already and I cannot uncheck it. If I use Paypal check out, it was not added.
My account maybe black listed because they lost my previous order?
No, that has always been the case. you cannot remove tracking unless you go direct through PayPal. Don’t worry its not you.
Marc.
You are right, but is that because gearbest are cheap or that our domestic sellers are overcharging? Probably somewhere in between I would say.
When I add tracking I always get a real tracking number which I can track from my local po website online, and a picture of package.
Yeah, rrright, like, this was not a shameless plug :D!
your mind is free to believe whatever you like…
Well, that didnt seem like, umm, accidental post of yours :D!
There are rules and those should be abided by every single one of affiliates out there and that post of yours seemed like an attempt to sway people towards yours.
Because, basically, you ARE perceived as commercial sellers little helpers here on BLF.
As I said, if we keep it civilised and within the limits of rules, I have no problems with any of affiliate posting.
you have to judge yourself if you believe me to be interested in the users experiences.
i do not post a lot questions i really do want to know or things i have to contribute to the community because i am afraid to be falsely accused again and again…
if you like we can PM if you need more info about me and my motivation.
keep this thread clean ;=
Well, obviously this thread is about Gearbest shipping and order fullfilment issues and you, being Banggood affiliate, basically bound by rules come here and ask this sneaky question of wether members here have the same experience with other Chinese sellers as well does look fishy, nothing personal.
Banggood themselves might have come to this place and posted exact same question and to me it wouldnt be any much different.
