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, Kriegsmarine. An Officer’s Dagger, by Weyersburg, Kirschbaum & Co.

(Kriegsmarine Offiziersdolch). A Kriegsmarine officer’s dagger, measuring 420 mm in length when inserted into the scabbard. The dagger features a 255 mm-long nickel-plated magnetic metal blade with a sharpened tip and blunted edges. The obverse of the blade features a maker’s mark of “WKC” for the Weyersburg, Kirschbaum & Co., along with the firm’s logo of a knight’s helmet. A thin leather washer covers the seam of the upper crossguard, itself constructed of bronze and presenting with stylized raised anchors on both the obverse and reverse. The crossguard bears a push button connecting to a functional spring catch for locking on to a scabbard. The handle is constructed of white celluloid and features ribbing wrapped with twisted copper cord. The pommel is constructed of bronze and consisting of a German national eagle perched on top of a wreathed mobile swastika. The dagger is accompanied by its period original scabbard, constructed of bronze with finely-detailed engraved designs. The scabbard features two integrated bands, consisting of raised oak leaves, with loops accommodating a dagger hanger. The throat of the scabbard is held together by two visible rivets. Some rusting is evident to the blade, there is cracking and chipping of the celluloid handle, and the brass features demonstrate moderate tarnishing. The dagger is in an overall very fine condition.
