About True Toys:

We're True Toys, an online toy shop for real families. We've been doing this for 14 years (you might know us better as BargainMax), so toys are something we genuinely know inside out.

We've just grown up a little along the way, mostly because a lot of us became parents too, and that changed how we see everything.

Delivering the true value of play

We bring together the toys families love from the big names like LEGO, Mattel and VTech to exclusive finds you won't get everywhere else, all at honest prices. But we've never believed value is only about what you spend. It's about knowing what to choose and feeling good about that choice, because behind every order is a birthday, a surprise, a milestone or a memory in the making.

Let kids just be kids

More than anything, we believe in the true value of play. Our vision is a simple one: let kids just be kids. The kind of play that fires up imaginations, pulls families together and gives children the space to simply be children. It's what guides the toys we pick and the way we look after every family who shops with us.

Our Values
Everything we do comes back to four things that make us who we are:

Trust
Honest Prices and recommendations you can rely on.

Real
No gimmicks, just genuine choices for real families.

Understanding
We're parents, and big kids ourselves, so we get it.

Energy
Because play should always feel like fun

Hi Sean, thank you for your review. We’re really sorry to hear about your recent experience and completely understand your frustration. This isn’t the level of service we aim to provide, and we apologise for the delay and unexpected cancellation of your order. Sometimes supplier or stock issues can occur unexpectedly, and while this doesn’t excuse the inconvenience, we should have communicated better throughout the process.

“On Monday 1st September I ordered the VIRO Cafe Racer electric bike for my sons birthday that was on the Saturday and the delivery window was 2 to 4 days, I kept an eye on the delivery tracker and by the Friday there had been no update from the carrier Evri to even confirm they had received my parcel so I rang Bargain Max only to be told the parcel had been lost in transit. I was offered a refund or a replacement so be cause the price was very good i went for a replacement and this time i received an update from Evri confirming they had the parcel however up to today ( 15th September ) i still haven't received the item so again i rang customer service at Bargainmax to be told the parcel had been lost a 2nd time. This time i asked for a refund to be told that due to the fact they had swapped over to a new system that my refund will take up to 7 days, This is extremely poor service and the final insult is the delay on the refund.”

Hi Terry, We're truly sorry for the frustration and inconvenience you've experienced. We completely understand how upsetting this must have been, especially with it being a birthday gift for your son and the multiple delivery failures that followed. This falls short of the level of service we aim to provide. Unfortunately, it’s clear that the situation with the courier fell short not just once, but twice, and we take full responsibility for that. While we did our best to resolve it quickly with a replacement and then a refund, we understand how disappointing and unacceptable this experience has been, especially with the added delay during our system update. Please accept our sincerest apologies for the entire experience. Your feedback has been shared with both our team and the delivery partner involved to ensure we take steps to avoid this happening again. We’d really appreciate the chance to restore your confidence in us. Best regards, Grace

“I visited the online store looking for two sooters for 2 of my sons. The website said I neded to spend a min of £30 to use Klarna so I got an additional toy. An error message ocurred saying that the additional toy was out of stock so I removed it from my basket and added a costume and a pack of batteries, keeping the 2 scooters. I checked out looking forward to receiving the products only to find two order numbers had been raised with total of 4 scooters. I wattsapped traight away asking for the initial one to be cancelled and was told I had to refuse delivery. Evri didnt bother to knock the door and just left on doorstep. Second order arrived missing the batteries!!!!!!!! I have four cooters but only need 2 and have paid for a pack ogf batteries that never arrived. Don{t bother using thi website they are useless.”

“I ordered a parcel as a gift . And I haven’t received it. I ordered it again as I needed it for a birthday gift ( which was now late) and received that one soon after. I am still waiting for my first item to be refunded, as it was never delivered . I have emailed, and you get a generic message back saying someone will contact shortly but they haven’t.”
