Looks like Marc got lucky and has a couple of amateurs in a good old-fashioned bidding war.
Not necessarily amateur. Occasionally, bidders "bid up" an auction early in the game in order to intimidate others from bidding against them (since doing so would be "futile"). It's a psychological tactic that sometimes works.
