I was just about to buy from gear best and this made me think twice. Thanks for your feedback, sometimes through feedback, others can make a better decision.After seeing the post of @Sunny about GearBest I thought it's a good opportunity to buy 3 G90 dashcams ...I was wrong.
In case you don't know about Gearbest here you can find some details. At the moment I'm writing this post, on http://www.resellerratings.com/store/gearbest there are 365 reviews and the overall rate for this shop is 5.84 / 10 (so, quite ****ty store).
On 18th Nov I placed two orders for two dashcams and on 23rd Nov for another one.
Theoretically with 1st December they had to start processing the orders, but they delayed almost one more week. Let's not forget that there were days when the price was lower than the "special" price for the pre-sales.
On 5th December the status of the payment (on Paypal) changed to "complete" and Gearbest got the money. Whithout seeing any changes on Gearbest I worte on their website. For some immaginary problems they delayed more my order and in the end they ...cancelled these orders
Avoid Gearbest with all the price. You're losing your time and money with them. Find a local reseller (who can be trusted and buy from him). Even though I had some problems with Joovuu (due to a miscommunication) at least I got the dashcam.
With Garbage(st) you'll get garbage services and, extrapolating, garbage items.
Myself included. I have gotten things from them with no issue. They have also listen to and taken my feedback into consideration on different things.Many people here have had great experiences with GearBest.

Dera MIA,messages, I count them. For the 3 orders I have 10.
I'll get my money back (I don't worry about that; in the worst case I open a dispute on Paypal website. What I regret is all the lost time).
Orders:

Paypal:

My bank, 90.98$=75.86€ (my bank updates the payments with some delay)

Dear MIA,I confirm the refund. Could you also send me back my spent time with your store ?
Anyway, for me, the Paypal verification has another meaning. With a verified account, there is no limit of purchases. Otherwise I think the limit is 500 $. As long as the buyer completely pays the requested amount (and Paypal confirms) then I can't see where is the problem. A verified account gives Paypal more rights on the buyer or seller accounts, which it's useful in case of a dispute. But, then again it wasn't my case due to the fact that the payment was complete. So, you cancelled a perfectly good transaction.
Sending personal details (to an unknown recipient) can be very dangerous and in the actual context your request wasn't quite legitimate.
