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.

United States. A United States Naval Construction Battalions (Seabees) EM/NCO’s Service Cap, c. 1943

A very well-preserved United States Naval Construction Battalions (Seabees) EM/NCO’s service cap, constructed of white cotton twill. The structure of the cap is composed of reinforced side panels, the exterior of which is stamped in black ink with an inscription of “SEABEES”, flanked on the left by a cartoon sailor and on the right by a unit insignia of a cartoon bee wielding a drill, while the opposite side of the cap bears a black ink inscription of “TOMMY”. The cap is held together by three overlapping cotton bands on the interior. It measures approximately 215 mm in diameter when in a wearable position, with a height of 68 mm. Minor soiling is evident to both the exterior and interior, but the cap is in an overall near extremely fine condition.
