I had a really disappointing experience…
I had a really disappointing experience with Luminity London.
Before my order arrived, I specifically asked whether the item was being drop shipped from China, because the delivery was taking longer than expected. I was told that their headquarters and offices are based in the UK and that every piece is quality inspected before dispatch.
However, the tracking showed the parcel coming directly from China, including airline handover, original airport departure, destination airport arrival, and customs clearance. That did not match the impression I was given about UK inspection and dispatch.
The order itself was also wrong. I ordered one 7 inch / 18 cm white gold bracelet and one 6 inch / 15 cm gold bracelet, but I received two 7 inch white gold bracelets instead. So not only did the delivery raise concerns, the order was not even fulfilled correctly.
On top of that, the bracelets felt cheap and poor quality compared with the premium image advertised. Based on my experience, it did not feel like a properly inspected, high-quality product.
To be fair, I returned the items and did receive a refund, but I should not have had to chase this after receiving the wrong items and tracking that appeared to contradict what I was told.
I would not order again. Be careful and check the tracking, sizing, colour, and quality properly if you buy from them.
