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:

Twenty-Two Percent (22%) of the Hammer Price

A Battlefield Recovered Single Decal SS M40 Helmet

Steel helmet, magnetic, rolled edge, air vents on either side, with black and white SS decal on the right side. The inside comes complete with its original nine-panel black-finished leather liner, each panel with five ventilation holes and a hole at the tip housing a black shoe string that replaces its originally issued drawstring, eight of the tip holes with a circular reinforcement on the underside, the ends of the liner originally stitched together but having separated over time. The two-piece leather chinstrap has been lost to time as well, while the steel buckles are affixed to the liner's steel frame, however, the liner has come away from the steel shell as it is missing its three pins. There is a partially obscured owner's name in white paint on the underside of the skirt at the rear. Measures 235 mm x 288 mm x 160 mm in height. Surface rust and pitting on both the exterior and interior, but traces of the original apple green painted finish remain, the SS insignia remaining relatively intact. As found. [C4]
