Default Ebay Reserve Question

If I bid on an item and the reserve isn’t met but then the reserve is lowered making me the highest bidder do I win the item?

I was bidding on quite a few cars earlier, I didn’t reach the reserve of any of them but I am currently winning all three and now I am concerned in case they all lower their reserve price. I could afford one but not all three!

Oops!
