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.

A Wartime Photo of a Lieutenant General with KC and Honour Roll Clasp

A photo, measuring 68x97mm, near mint condition. It shows a Lieutenant General, wearing a Knight’s Cross and an Honour Roll Clasp. His uniform also shows the Clasp to the Iron Cross 1st Class, and the ribbon bar consists of the Iron Cross 1914 2nd Class with Clasp and the Order of Hohenzollern with Crown.

Footnote: The Honour Roll Clasp of the Army (Ehrenblatt des Heeres) was awarded following the invasion of the Soviet Union in 1941. Until January 30th, 1944, the Honour Roll Clasp existed only on paper. It was awarded to previous recipients of the Iron Cross 1939 First and Second class, who “once again” distinguished themselves in combat. It was awarded a total of only 4,556 times during the war, without specific qualifications to earn this award. However, it was bestowed at the discretion of the German High Command – sparingly, to retain a high level of prestige.
