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 Rare Second War Dutch “Oostkorps” N.A.D. Arm Badge

This rare N.A.D. (Nederlandse Arbeids Dienst) Badge is constructed of field grey/green wool, while the top is hand embroidered in black and golden threads (representing Dutch/Nederland’s N.A.D.), and below is hand embroidered “A.D.” in black threads; the entire badge is rimmed in black threads, and all sitting on top of dark green backing wool; fairly large badge, measures approx. 65mm x 84mm; in slightly worn condition; possibly an Officer’s example. Footnote: Dutch/Nederland’s N.A.D. was similar in organizational purpose and intent as the German R.A.D., except much smaller. The N.A.D. sent a corps of volunteers - the “Groupe Oost” or “Oostgroupe” van de N.A.D. (East corps of the N.A.D.) to serve alongside German R.A.D. units in the German rear in Russia in the spring of 1943; members wore distinctive cufftitle and this type of arm badge.
