Notice that the winning bid was placed earlier (14:06:12) than the 2nd-highest bid (14:06:23). Before n***a bid, t***e was winning with the showing bid at $57.00. When n***a bid $58.55, t***e's bid of $59.00 became the winning bid: we know it is the exact bid since it is less than an increment ($1.00) more than $58.55.
There is no limit to the number of bids eBay will accept, and valid bids are accepted right up until the auction ends (including the last second).
