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.

An Iron Cross Second Class Award Document to Regiment General Göring 1941

Certificate of awarding of Iron Cross 2nd Class to Walter Burgdorf, measures 14.1 x 20.1 cm. Date of item: 1941. Condition: excellent, with a few spots of aging. A certificate of awarding of the Iron Cross 2nd Class to Unteroffizier (Corporal) Walter Burgdorf of the Regiment General Göring, 8th company. The award was made “in the name of the Führer and Supreme Commander of the Wehrmacht”. Corporal Burgdorf got the award on June 28th, 1941, at “Gefechtsstand” (combat headquarters). Since the attack on the Soviet Union began on June 22nd of the same year and his regiment was made part of the 11th Panzer Division (part of the Heeresgruppe Süd = Army Group South) that took part in this campaign, Corporal Burgdorf most likely was honoured in Ukraine or southern Russia. The medal is awarded by the Commanding General of the II. Flak Corps, Lieutenant-General Deßloch.
