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). This is an extremely well-preserved Waffen-SS M43 field cap, constructed of field-grey gabardine wool. The crown of the cap is fully lined with a band of white piping, indicating infantry personnel. The cap features fold-down side panels providing neck and ear protection for the wearer which, when not in use, are rolled up and fastened together by two pebbled magnetic metal buttons on the right flap meeting an equal number of reinforced buttonholes on the left flap. The peak features an insignia in the form of a field-grey rayon trapezoid bearing a machine-embroidered second form SS eagle above a Totenkopf, with the overall insignia measuring 55 mm (w) x 42 mm (h). The exterior features are completed by a protruding visor with a fully intact cardboard reinforcement. Stitched into the reverse of the visor is a tan-coloured leather sweatband which encompasses the forehead area. The interior of the cap is fully lined with a grey rayon liner, the top of which bears a black ink size stamp of “76”. It is otherwise unmarked and measures approximately 195 mm (w) x 2608mm (l) x 130 mm (h). Minor soiling and material fatigue is evident, but the cap is in an otherwise near extremely fine condition.
