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.

To be eligible, a soldier had to have one of the following: 12 engagements against the enemy - a particularly successful mission or being killed in action - being wounded (in special cases) or survive being sunk - performing an heroic action where no other award was given; On the top is a depiction of the badge: a torpedo boat breaking the waves inside a wreath of oak leaves with an imperial eagle on top, standing on a swastika. The 4th Schnellbootsflottille operated in the North Sea and the English Channel between 1940 and 1944.
