That most certainly WOULD be the case. Here is how it works. You hit one click bidding, for let's say $41. Ebay bids automatically for the previous bidder who had a higher bid. Therefore, the previous bidder is at $42 now. That would make the new one click bid show at $43, which the one click bidder say "OK", and hit the button again. Ebay now puts the previous bidder at the $44 increment. When you see the bidding pattern, and the quickness, it is easy to see that is exactly what happened. I have done one click bidding before. I like it, when I have spontaneous interest in a card, and want to try to win it right now.

The beauty of one click bidding, is that you don't have to enter numbers in if you don't want to - you can just keep clicking the button and going with Ebay's next bid increment.
