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, DRL. A 1937 Award Certificate for a DRL Champions Badge

(Deutscher Reichsbund für Leibesübungen Verleihungsurkunde). An award certificate for a DRL Champions Badge in Bronze, constructed of cream-coloured paper stock, the obverse with a golden-yellow DRL-style German national eagle perched on a Grecian column, overlaid by an inscription awarding the badge to Helmut Bonnet in Berlin on 1 August 1937, with a facsimile of the signature of Reichssportführer Hans von Tschammer und Osten, measuring 275 mm (w) x 404 mm (h), material fatigue evident to both the obverse and reverse, in overall better than very fine condition.

Footnote: Helmut Bonnet competed in the men’s decathlon at the 1936 Berlin Olympics, placing 8th. As a Luftwaffe instructor during the Second World War, Bonnet was wounded in action and died in a military hospital in Munich on 27 September 1944.
