What's a max bid?

Your maximum bid should be the highest amount you're willing to pay for an item.

Your entered maximum bid will not be disclosed to the seller or other auction participants at any point.

Max bidding example:

If the current auction price is $100 dollars and you place a maximum bid of $120 dollars, the system will bid $101 dollars on your behalf.

If no other participant places a bid, you win that auction lot for $101 dollars.

If another auction participant places a bid of $110 dollars, the system will subsequently place a bid of $111 dollars on your behalf. The system will continue to bid in $1.00 dollar increments until your maximum bid of $120 dollars is exceeded.

If another auction participant places a bid for $125 dollars, the auction lot price will display $121 dollars having exceeded your previously submitted maximum bid by $1.00 dollar.

Buyer's Premium

All bids are subject to a Buyer's Premium which is in addition to the placed successful bid. The following rate of Buyer's Premium will be added to the Hammer Price of each Lot that you purchase:

(Nishan al-Nil). Instituted in 1915. Hardshelled design on both the lid and base with a forest green thatched exterior on all sides, marked with the Royal cypher above the class designation "4" in Eastern Arabic and trimmed with an ornate border in gold-coloured ink on the lid, inside lid lined in white satin and padded, a white fabric-wrapped cardboard insert placed within the base and housing a raised platform in cream-coloured felt, with a recessed medal bed for the badge, single clasp closure, measuring 92 mm (w) x 126.5 mm (h) x 27 mm (d), moderate wear and spotting evident on the exterior, lightly soiled medal bed, the raised platform loose with one of its two bar supports askew, near very fine.

Footnote: The Order of the Nile was instituted in 1915 by Sultan Hussein Kamel, to reward persons, military or civilian, who had rendered useful service to Egypt. It was reconstituted under the Arab Republic of Egypt on June 18, 1953, but without the crown. In the Kingdom of Egypt, the Order of the Nile ranked beneath the Order of Ismail.
