You don't have time to keep checking back so you put an early bid in on the off chance you win.
Sometimes stuff just passes under everyones radar (e.g. a spelling mistake in the title)
Test the water to see if there is a reserve.
Get the ball rolling.
An early bid can mean the seller might contact you and offer you it direct.
Lots of reasons.
