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.

Germany, Wehrmacht. A Model C Throat Microphone

(Kehlkopfmikrofon). A well-preserved Model C throat microphone used by Wehrmacht Flak and Panzer personnel. It is constructed of a malleable leather-insulated magnetic metal band connecting to dual circular black bakelite input microphones. An insulated wire cord emanates from the bottom of each input, with magnetic metal springs over each seam. The wires connected to a control switch with a black bakelite casing and functional magnetic metal spring clip for uniform attachment. A further cord emanates from the control module and completes in a three-pronged plug. The outer edge of one input microphone bears the remnants of a Wehrmacht mark with an illegible maker’s code. Minor material fatigue is visible, particularly to the leather liner, but the microphone is in an otherwise near extremely fine condition.
