ChrisF Posted April 19, 2021 Share Their adds are popping up more and more ... LightInTheBox.com Some very nice art work. A closer look suggests ordering from UK, but returns to be sent to China .... Anybody bought from them ? Any feedback on their goods ? Any chance of a local distributor ? Edited April 19, 2021 by ChrisF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skylark Posted April 20, 2021 Share Looks the same as Wish or any ebay seller, just pay with PayPal so you can easily get a refund if it never arrives. I'm assuming they ship with the Post Office?What are Post office delivery times like currently for Chinese orders?

Prince Posted April 20, 2021 Share They have some really funky shirts . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HenryS Posted April 20, 2021 Share I ordered 2 pairs of cycling tights from them at the beginning of March. Each one was shipped separately (2 different sizes) and I received them a couple of days apart about 2 weeks later. They were delivered to my door by Fastway couriers and there were no extra costs to be paid. They were shipped from China. ChrisF 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red Robin Posted April 20, 2021 Share They have some really funky shirts . There is a lady who advertises on FB that has the same shirts that are still reasonably priced but not as cheap but the convenience is you order from her in SA. She obviously orders in bulk, gets it delivered and then sells in SA. Alas I can't remember any other details so will wait for it to come up again on one of the groups.

I paid R 230 including shipping + R 33 for customs. Ridiculous value for money. Will order again. justinafrika 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eddy Gordo Posted June 24, 2021 Share I ordered something a month and a half back. Payed priority shipping and the items quality is not what was expected or as advertised. Not sure if I would use them again. I find the variety of some stuff to be very small vs ali express. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've ordered multiple items from this retailer on three occasions in the last 18 months. It's molto important to check the size guide and user reviews for every item as sizes can vary greatly between manufacturers. Some items I ordered were XL and some were XXXL, but all fitted excellently 'cos I followed the guide. Some baggy shorts and shirts have seen heavy rotation in a 6 to 7 day cycling week for almost 18 months and are as good as well-known brands that I bought locally.
