Ebay processes the new bid, then checks for existing bids, so in this case bidder 8 bid $4000 and became the high bidder, for just a moment. Then ebay searches for any bids it has on hand to see if they are exhausted, or as in this case bidder 6 had a bid in for the same amount, placed earlier, so he goes to winning bidder.
