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.

Footnote: The Canadian Depot Battalions were formed in August 1917 and established in central locations within various military districts across Canada. They handled the training of the final allotments of recruits and draftees to various battalions in England and fighting in France. After the signing of the armistice, they were used as demobilization centres for returning Canadian corps. The battalions were disbanded on September 15, 1920. Most depot battalions used the regiment badges of the military district in which they were posted, with titles being the only identifying insignia. The 2nd Quebec Regiment, 1st Depot Battalion was posted to Military District No. 4, headquartered in Quebec City, Quebec.
