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 Royal Order of Independence of Jordan; Grand Cross Sash Badge

(Wisam al-Istiqlal): Three-piece construction, silver gilt with red and white enamelled insignia, mounted to a ten-pointed silver star base, dual hallmarked on the reverse and dual hallmarked on the wreath suspension, 57.5 mm x 91.5 mm inclusive of its wreath suspension, on a full-length sash, intact enamels, extremely fine.

Footnote: The Wisam al-Istiqlal was established by Emir Hussein I ibn Ali in 1921, as an award for civilian or military merit while he was ruler of the Hejaz. In 1924, ibn Saud ousted Hussein and founded what became the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Hussein fled to Cyprus and later settled in Amman, his son Abdullah having become Emir of Transjordan in 1921. The Order was adopted by the Emirate (later Kingdom) of Transjordan. Abdullah became King Abdullah I and the current King of Jordan is his great-grandson. The Order continues to be awarded.
