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.

Germany, SS. A Waffen-SS EM/NCO’s M43 Field Cap

(Waffen-SS Einheitsfeldmütze M43). An extremely well-preserved Waffen-SS EM/NCO’s M43 field cap constructed of field-grey whipcord wool. The cap is fully surrounded by fold-down side panels, scalloped at the front, offering optional ear and neck protection for the wearer. When not in use, the panels roll up and are secured in place by two pebbled and silvered zink buttons on the right flap meeting an equal number of reinforced buttonholes on the left flap. Stitched onto the peak of the cap is an insignia consisting of a field-grey rayon trapezoid bearing a machine-embroidered silver-grey SS-style German national eagle clutching a wreathed mobile swastika, above a Totenkopf. The insignia measures 58 mm (w) x 44 mm (h) overall. The exterior features are completed with a protruding cardboard-reinforced visor, with the cardboard fully intact and free of commonly-seen cracking. A dark grey rayon liner fully encompasses the interior of the cap, with a size of “56” stamped onto the crown in black ink. It is otherwise unmarked and measures approximately 200 mm (w) x 250 mm (l) x 130 mm (h). With only minor signs of material fatigue, this is a rare example of a Waffen-SS M43 cap in extremely fine condition.
