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 Heer Dress Bayonet, by Carl Eickhorn (Heer Bajonett)

An extremely well-preserved Heer dress bayonet, measuring 395 mm in total length when inserted into the scabbard. It features a 250 mm-long magnetic metal blade with a sharpened tip and unsharpened edges, as well as a fuller on each side. The blade presents plain with the exception of a maker’s mark near the reverse ricasso of “ORIGINAL EICKHORN, SOLINGEN”, circumscribing the firm’s logo of a squirrel clutching a sword. The blade sits securely within a nickel-plated metal alloy hilt, with the seam covered by an intact green felt buffer pad. The hilt features a hooked quillon and an insertion slot retaining a functional push-button spring catch. Two pieces of pebbled black bakelite comprise the handle grip, and are secured together by two magnetic metal rivets. It is accompanied by its period original scabbard, constructed of a black-painted magnetic metal shaft. A downward-pointing clip emanates from the side of the shaft for the accommodation of a frog. The throat is secured together with a single side rivet and retains a functional spring catch, securely holding the bayonet in place during storage. While extremely well-preserved, it demonstrates some issues consistent with age and use, including running marks to the blade, minor loss of finish to the nickel-plated elements, and possible repainting of the scabbard. The bayonet is in an overall near extremely fine condition.
