Gearbest EU warehouse??

[Lucas Castillo]

Need to order a new chinese tablet since I broke my previous one. I have been eyeing the Teclast X2 Pro for abit now. I went on to gearbest and saw that they have it in their EU warehouse for 375 usd. Whaat? Sounds to good to be true… So I wanted to know if anyone on here has had any experiences with Gearbest EU warehouse and could tell me if it’s any good. Because if I can get that tablet from the EU i avoid around 100+ usd of Import Tax…

I had the Teclast X98 air 3g from the EU warehouse and only took 3 days to arrive and there are no custom charges.

I ordered a XiaoMi MiPad 2 from the Gearbest EU warehouse on 05.05.2016 that is shown as shipped within my account.  I hope to receive it shortly.

I received the tablet today (12.05.2016) via Royal Mail.  Unopened packaging and no tax to pay.  Just waiting for it to charge fully before doing anything with it (it came with 50% charge).

Decent transaction with GB so far.

I just received my Chuwi Vi8 Plus from Gearbest after having ordered it over 2 months ago. I regretfully opted for the free shipping.

However the bulk of the time wasted seemed to be in the processing of my order, once paid it took over 3 weeks to be handed over to the courier (PostNL), and there it sat for nearly a month. After several inquiries regarding its status it finally left the country, it took about 2 weeks to reach Canada, then another 9 days to get through customs and delivered by Canada Post.

I have read others having better experiences with paid shipping, and even for free shipping. I haven’y seen anything close to my experience yet so hopefully for your sake it was just my case.

ordered two weeks ago a Cube iwork10 flagship from “EU warehouse”. Took 11 days to start travelling to my country; now it is stuck on custom: invoice missing. seems that the EU warehouse isn’t really a legal EU item cause they have not paid VAT and custom fees in the country they hold there stuff so at the end it is like I purchased from china, paid more and paid shipping. NEVER AGAIN from Gearbest

I’ve heard some negative reviews about it, so I’d say that working with this warehouse in particular is not the best option. I’m pretty sure that nowadays, it’s possible to find better alternatives.

Many companies start to expand their businesses and get warehouses worldwide, so I believe that this one shouldn’t be an exception as well. Moreover, with warehouse management solutions from Deus robotics, running a warehouse is not a problem at all, and it’s not as expensive and complicated as it used to be in the past.

Same here, bro. Was expanding my operations to Europe, and on a construction site in Germany, we constantly had to run around to count construction supplies and monitor equipment. Through IoT Remote Monitoring we installed wireless sensors that send data to the cloud. On the screen, it immediately showed where our warehouse management was not perfect. Have you ever seen how real numbers give peace of mind? We cut the count time from 3 hours to 20 minutes per day. The whole office was shocked when we calculated the savings: $6,200 per month just on that.
