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 Luftwaffe Tropical EM/NCO’s Overseas Cap

This is an exceptionally preserved, near mint Luftwaffe Tropen Fliegermütze constructed of a tan “tropical” cotton fabric blend, with fold-down side and back panels with gently sloping, downward scallops to the front. The front of the cap features a machine embroidered Luftwaffe eagle patch in grey cotton threads, mounted on a matching tropical rayon/cotton blend backer. Directly beneath is a machine embroidered national tri-colour cockade in black, white, and red cotton threads. Both the eagle and the cockade appear original to the cap and machine-stitched into place. The interior of the cap is fully lined with a cotton/rayon blend fabric, and is marked “Berolina, Berlin, 1942” in black ink (slightly faded from age). The cap measures 270 mm x 120 mm when folded. Overall, this overseas cap is exceptionally preserved, without significant wear marks, or signs of age. Extremely fine condition.
