lightinthebox.com any good?

[Kalle]

So I want to order the new Ezbook 3 pro v4 but GB seem to be out of stock and aren’t expected to get any new ones until 15 September. Then add about 2 weeks shipping and I won’t have it until October. I found this store lightinthebox.com which sells it for the same price and claims to ship it within 24 hours. Now I have never bought anything from this store. How does it work? Is there any warranties or returns?

I’ve used them before. Okay, but one other was not as per the listing. The spec was completely wrong so I had to return it. They paid for the postage at least. I prefer Gearbest and Banggood. I still also use Aliexpress quite a lot as those sellers tend to get the tend before BG and GB.

Are you sure is V4? All the V4 questions that had been made in their listing had been answered negatively.

I just ordered the Jumper EZbook 3 Pro v4 128GB version from LightinTheBox and so far it has turned out very well for me.
I bought it here and paid well above the rock bottom price on Gearbest only because I needed to have it shipped fast to a friend in Germany that was travelling soon to my country (to avoid VERY high import taxes) and LITB said they had them in stock, so presumably no delays in shipping.  I paid extra for both expedited shipping and import duties/taxes insurance.  The tax insurance was around US$4-5 I’m remembering.  Despite expedited shipping it took them over a week to even ship it out.  I’m guessing it’s hard for them to get this particular notebook as they were back-ordered on Gearbest as well and unavailable at that time.  Once it shipped, it arrived in Germany very fast 2-4 days (remembering) via DHL.    Probably because of the DHL shipper I had to pay around USD$70 for VAT import tax.  But LightinTheBox refunded this $70 since I had paid for the tax insurance – five bucks well spent!
So far the notebook is working fine, so all in all, in my case I’d rate LightinTheBox very +good.
