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:

Instituted in 1926. Type I with Six Arrows (1926-1953). In silver gilt with green and white enamels, maker marked "ARTHUS BERTRAND" and marked "DÉPOSÉ" (Deposit) on the reverse, measuring 39.5 mm (w) x 63 mm (h) inclusive of its wreath suspension, intact enamels, original ribbon, extremely fine.

Footnote: The Syrian government established this Order, to recognize acts of courage and commitment. Its design was changed in 1927 to a six-pointed star formed from the overlaying of two triangles, illustrating six arrows. It was again re-designed in 1953 as a white star formed by five arrows.
