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.

Japan, Imperial. An Army Officer’s Visor Cap

This is a very well-preserved Japanese Army officer’s visor cap constructed of brown wool featuring a classic high peak, bordered with red piping along the top edge. A red wool band surrounds the circumference, fronted by a bronze gilt star. Each side has two ventilation holes between the piping and wool band, all with brown eyelets. The visor is constructed of black leather, with a black leather chinstrap laying across the top, attached to gilded buttons on either side displaying raised chrysanthemums. The interior features a tan-coloured leather sweatband, and is also lined in black silk with Japanese writing embroidered in white thread. The cap measures 220 mm (w) x 2210 mm (h). There is some mothing of the exterior wool, but the cap is in an otherwise very fine condition.
