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:

A Second Pattern Luftwaffe Dagger

Measuring 425 mm, with the scabbard on, this dagger features a 255 mm nickel-plated steel blade, magnetic, with dull edges and having a very sharp tip. The blade's reverse ricasso is unmarked. It retains its crossgraining, in addition to scratches overall, common to extraction and return to the scabbard, with scattered surface wear, edge nicks throughout, along with pitting, especially at the tip on the obverse. The black leather washer at the crossguard junction has hardened but remains intact. Silvered magnetic metal ferrule and bright aluminum hilt fittings which includes the embellished pommel, eagle crossguard and quillon, have surfaces with moderate surface wear and contact marks. Ivory-coloured celluloid grip exhibits light contact but is free of chips and crazing, ten rows of wrap on the grip are free of interruption and in terrific shape, the dagger measuring 387 mm overall. Silvered metal scabbard measures 295 mm, magnetic, with a traditional pebbled finish, crisp ball finial, the throat retained by one mounted screw, oak leaf bands with rings, free of dents, with overall silvering wear and surface rust evident. Near very fine.
