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.

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, Heer. An Officer’s M43 Field Cap

(Heer Feldmütze für Offiziere). A very well-preserved Heer Officer’s M43 field cap, constructed of field-grey wool. The cap is fully surrounded by scalloped fold-down side panels offering partial neck and ear protection which, when not in use, are rolled up and secured in place with two pebbled magnetic metal buttons on the right flap meeting an equal number of reinforced buttonholes on the left flap. A band of silver aluminum wire piping fully surrounds the crown, indicating Officer issue. Stitched onto the peak is an insignia in the form of a field-grey rayon trapezoid bearing a machine-embroidered silver aluminum wire Wehrmacht eagle clutching a wreathed mobile swastika, above a tri-colour cockade. The insignia measures 65 mm (w) x 50 mm (h). The exterior features complete with a protruding visor with a cardboard reinforcement. A light grey rayon liner fully encompasses the interior, presenting plain with the exception of a black ink size stamp of “58”. It measures approximately 190 mm (w) x 265 mm (l) x 130 mm (h). Minor material fatigue is evident to the wool, but the cap is in an overall extremely fine condition.
