eBay question weird occurance with bidders

[AbraCalabro]

So, I remember a week or two ago, after an auction ended there was something weird going on with the bidding.

There was a guy with a LOWER bid amount who appeared higher up on the bidder's list than a guy with a much higher bid amount. There were no bid retractions either. What the hell happened?

Here's an example, EDITED because I goofed the first time:

winnerwinnerchickendinner $300.00 (<---winner)
ilikepudding2020 $150.00 (<---why does this even show up here)
ismokecrack420 $275.00
imgoingbaldpleasehelpme $130.00
johnnyfatsack $100.00
MLPbrony $86.99
musclegodworship $46.55
ursmomsfat1995 $17.56
lowballguy4u $1.00

Not sure, but judging by the eBay username, you dodged a bullet.

I am purely guessing but maybe the highest bidder was a previous blocked member?

That could be a possibility, although I edited the post slightly because I goofed it up the first time. The highest bidder ended up winning, but for some reason the guy in second place had a lower bid than the guy in third place. Which just doesn't make any sense, do you think it could just be a glitch of some sort?
