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, Heer. A Gebirgsjäger EM/NCO’s M42 Tropical Overseas Cap by Felix Weissbach

(Heer Panzergrenadier Schiffchen). An extremely well-preserved Heer EM/NCO’s tropical overseas field cap, constructed of olive-grab cotton twill. The cap is fully surrounded by fold-down side panels, securely held in place at the front by two pieces of stitching. The crown is flanked on each side by a ventilation hole reinforced by a brown-painted zink eyelet. Stitched onto the peak is an insignia constructed of a light-brown cotton threading overlaid by a silver-grey, BeVo-style Wehrmacht eagle clutching a wreathed mobile swastika. The insignia measures 70 mm (w) x 30 mm (h). Beneath the eagle is a BeVo-style, tri-colour cockade set on a light brown cotton backer, measuring 35 mm (w) x 33 mm (h). Stitched around the cockade is a meadow-green soutache, indicating Gebirgsjäger personnel. The interior features a complete red cotton liner, clearly bearing a maker’s mark of “F. WEISSBACH, GLAUCHAU”, with a model stamp of “E 42” and a size stamp of “55”. The cap measures 265 mm (l) x 125 mm (h) when folded. It presents free of evident faults and is in an extremely fine condition.
