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:

Germany, Heer. An EM/NCO’s M44 Field Cap

(Einheitsfeldmütze M44). A very well-preserved Heer EM/NCO’s M44 field cap, constructed of grey-brown wool twill. It features 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 with a single pebbled zink button on the right flap meeting a reinforcement buttonhole set into the left flap. Affixed to the peak with original factory stitching is a classic M44 insignia in the form of a light brown rayon trapezoid bearing a machine-embroidered silver-grey Wehrmacht eagle clutching a wreathed mobile swastika, above a tricolour cockade. The insignia measures 65 mm (w) x 50 mm (h). Completing the exterior features is a protruding cardboard-reinforced visor, fully lined in identical wool. An olive-drab rayon liner encompasses the interior, which presents plain with the exception of an illegible black ink mark, which is possibly a size stamp. The cap is otherwise unmarked and measures approximately 210 mm (w) x 260 mm (l) x 130 mm (h). Minor soiling is evident to both the exterior wool and the interior liner, but this late war-produced example is in an overall near extremely fine condition.
