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:

Germany. A Protection-Traffic Police Officer’s Visor Cap

Schutz-Verkehrspolizei Schirmmütze. The exterior of the cap is constructed of white cotton, featuring a traditional high peak crown with tightly seated and even green piping on the top and bottom edges of the cap band. The cap band itself is constructed of dark brown wool. On the front of the cap is a metal tri-colour cockade with a traditional silvered aluminum police eagle attached directly beneath. The visor is crafted of black faux leather (leatherette) and is lacquered in matte black on the obverse and with a green checkered pattern on the reverse, remaining firmly attached to the cap. The chin cord consists of a main cord crafted of multiple thick strands of twisted bullion cords, as well as two sliders constructed of four strands of thin twisted bullion cord, and is attached to either side of the cap via a silvered pebbled metal (magnetic) button. The interior of the cap is lined in white silk with a clear celluloid diamond sewn to the reverse of the crown, marked “Erel Sonderklasse, Berlin” with the addition of a sticker that advertises the function of the ventilated sweatband. The sweatband itself is made of tan coloured faux leather (leatherette) and is sewn to the edge of the cap via tan threads. It is marked as well in silver, but the writing is not legible. It measures 250 mm (w) x 263 mm (h). A lightly worn example in overall near extremely fine condition.
