I have yet to receive order as I just placed it yesterday. So far things seem good & price point seems to be about same as other sites similar. I have been sent my tracking #'s so getting order out was fast. I came to site as result of what I did use only half my orders showed & sick of having to beg for refund. Hopefully this is better.
DHGate as an online system works pretty well. It's their sellers that are so bad. Of my last 12 orders from 6 different sellers, DHGate made refunds on every one. They held my money for months then said either the seller was bad or that they issued an incorrect tracking number. Reliability of their sellers is TERRIBLE. DHGate's system however, runs pretty well, but little consolation when you hardly ever get your merchandise.

Bad service
A seller dosen´t give me a refund and he said that he will refund. He rejected the refund and he didn't do anything to solve this. I NEED MY MONEY BACK!

Several things I ordered last year did Not Arrive or Wrong item was sent.Lost hundreds of dollars last year sellers refuse refunds. DHgate sides with the sellers and close dispute. I had a HORRIBLE shopping experience with some sellers. But all of them are Not Bad did receive my items from some of the good sellers.I just placed an order got my finger crossed hope I receive it. Shop@Your Own Risk.
I’ve experienced just about everything you can think of I guess. I’ve received incredible items and some down right hysterical. Mostly I’ve received stuff that I am happy with though. So far two items ordered out of maybe 30 were not shipped to me but I received my money back. The struggle here is waiting for the items to arrive. Of course, during this pandemic it has slowed things down. Fastest shipment is 3 weeks and slowest was 3 months. If you’re not in a hurry, this is ideal.

Have been dealing with DHGate for years with great experiences, but just got an order that the jersey had two major mistakes on it. Wanted to forget about it and not write a review (and sent a message to seller about how dissatisified I was), come to find out I couldn't not write a review, and was given the runaround by DHGate for 2 weeks about it. I finally had to write the review (because of my OCD) to get it off my DHGate. Customer service was not helpful at all. The final one wouldn't even pass along a suggestion that they need to change it so someone has the option not to write a review. Overall, except for this one product my experiences have been good, but the terrible customer service drops the rating to 3 stars.

I ordered a large sweatshirt and it does not fit me. The sweatshirt must be in Asian size rather than in US. The title of the sweatshirt said nothing about it being Asian size, so it's unfair that I paid 50$ for the sweatshirt and it doesn't fit. I would like to either get a partial refund, a full refund, or if they can ship me another sweatshirt but as an XL instead

Dear Colin Glory,
I understand that you are concerned about the item that you received which is not as described. Let me help you with that. For cases like this, we strongly suggest that you will open a Return and Refund dispute to get a full refund or have a replacement item/s shipped to you.
Here are the steps on how you can open a dispute:
1. Log in to your DHgate account
2. Click “My Dhgate” link found at the upper right side of the home page
3.Click “My Orders”
4. Find the order under “Awaiting Confirm” tab
5. Once you found the order, click “Open a Dispute” link.
6. Please fill out the information needed before you click continue then “Submit”.
While here are the steps on how to open a dispute on your mobile app:
1. Open your DHgate mobile APP
2. Tap “Account” icon found at the bottom part of the home page
3. Go to “My Orders”
4. Tap “Shipped” tab and tap the order that you want to open a dispute
5. Under Order Detail section, you will see “Return & Refund”
6. Please fill out the information needed before you tap “Submit”
Please don't click on "Item has been received" as it will release the payment to the seller if you do click that and please don't close the dispute until this will be resolved.
Once you have opened the dispute, you have 5 days to reach an agreement with your seller. If you still haven't reached an agreement, you can escalate the case to DHgate.
Rest assured that everything is dealt with utmost urgency and we appreciate your trust in DHgate.com. Should you have any other concerns please do not hesitate to contact us through online chat: https://goo.gl/hvEzdN or send email to: [email protected].
