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.

Medaille du Volontaire. Instituted in 1946, updated 1952. 1 Clasp - COREE-KOREA. In bronze, measuring 38 mm in diameter, original ribbon with dual prong pinback, extremely fine.

Footnote: The Medal of the Volunteer was instituted on February 16, 1946, to award civilians and foreigners who had voluntarily enlisted, for the duration of hostilities, into the Belgian forces prior to May 8, 1945. Included were those that voluntarily served with the Royal Navy, Royal Air Force and enlistments into the Belgian Congo's Force Publique. The updated Medal of the War Volunteer was instituted on April 7, 1952 and awarded to Belgians or foreigners who volunteer for service with the Belgian armed forces in campaigns resulting from resolutions of the United Nations Security Council.
