Highest bidder

I am currently the highest bidder on an item then decided to increase my maximum bid. Why has it now increased my bid when I was already the highest bidder?

Highest bidder

That happens if your first bid was only just enough to overtake the highest bidder but wasn't a complete increment (pre-set by ebay).   So your second bid makes up the increment.   Here's info on increments:
