Andy Raber, Auctioneer

[@tonystowe9772]

Andy is one of the best auctioneers I have ever heard. I love the way he engages the audience, bidders, and how clear he speaks.

[@rweverett]

Exactly!

[@Florida239]

He’s definitely smooth for sure, does he sell cattle ?

[@josephmiller997]

For those of you that aren't auction people, the true test of an auctioneer isn't how fast he can chant, but how much he can get you to pay. Notice how he breaks into the chant, and gives some empty space and a few jokes. This guy is GOOD.

[@j.m.nicesr4083]

He’s a born salesman

[@unclrogPitcher]

been to a number of Andy's auctions... he is real, a gentleman, great to be around, runs a tight crew. i have bought and sold w/him, always a pleasure

[@rweverett]

Well said!

[@Amishmafia14]

I have heard Andy Raber several times and he is the best auctioneer ever!

[@Tonyconner74]

Run away Amish kid ...I like Les Longnecker

[@alexzingo6952]

You must have lot of horses so far.: )

[@ih1206]

Heard him in person a few time. Definitely one of the better auctioneers in ohio.

[@sawdustandsweat1750]

one of the best in ohio

[@juleswins3]

Good chant and good crowd rapport. The two things a successful auctioneer needs!

[@rweverett]

I'm not an Auctioneer, but I truly believe Andy is one of the best of the best!

[@caseyjones3684]

A Damn Good Auctioneer. The Better the AUCTIONEER interacts with the BUYERS the SELLERS MAKE MORE MONEY.... He is from a dying breed.... Loved the Video

[@rweverett]

Yes he sure is!!! Thanks and I can't wait to get to another auction of his soon!

[@fakenamefakeaccount7174]

Watch your mouth. This is a kid friendly video.

[@mdgreer6640]

Auctioneer here in Texas. This guy is one of the best chants working the crowd.

[@ChadAmI80]

Dang! Someone has honed their craft quite handsomely.

[@jaytc3218]

Every time I see auctioneers, I always think, "Dude, cut back on the caffeine!" But I get it.

[@rweverett]

Pretty sure they don't do caffeine, to be honest with you.....that's just Andy. He's the greatest!

[@jaytc3218]

@@rweverett I'm sure they don't either. I was just having a little fun there. Nothing but respect for these folks. I could never do that.

[@rweverett]

@@jaytc3218 thanks so much for the clarification! It's very appreciated!

[@jessiesineath7702]

First thing I think is, the wife must love him.

[@PoutinePete]

I didn't realize the Amish had a sense of humour!

[@rweverett]

Yes, very much so in the "right" scenario!!!!! This guy is the best of the best!!!!

[@benjaminpeters9843]

NORTHWOODSPREPPER1 lol what’s the diff?

[@bananamonkey8390]

@NORTHWOODSPREPPER1 he is amish ..

[@rweverett]

@NORTHWOODSPREPPER1 no, they're definitely Amish. Believe me, we go to all these auctions and they're not Mennonites.

[@ryanyodervlog]

@NORTHWOODSPREPPER1 (Mennonite here) everyone on stage is Amish (by appearance). But it varies so much and there are "transition stages" :) between the two names so it can be difficult to tell. I'll call someone Amish and some1's like, "ahem, 'amish-mennonite.'" Fine.

[@Counselor77]

Andy should and could be the world champion auctioneer. I have never heard better.

[@rweverett]

I agree wholeheartedly!!! He's the best!

[@milmil6594]

One of the best i have ever heard auctioneer...People need to realize the entertainment value of this art and he has it

[@rweverett]

You are EXACTLY correct! He makes the auctions when he is there!!!!

[@Retrosigns1]

Very nice chant! Like his style

[@ShermanT.Potter]

0:34 "New fire broke out!" That's awesome.

[@ncinteriorsplus3520]

He's extraordinary. Love it!

[@jasonmickelson4675]

I could listen to him All day long

[@dustywelchcraneman6614]

What funny is I was at an auction just like this. The final bid was down to nickels and dimes and it went like that for a while it was a hot run the whole place Held their breath until the end. I wish I could remember the auctioneer because he would do that if he knew it would get it sold without running it out to long, unless it was making for a good time. I remember one item went to like 3,000 and then he went dollar at a time till it sold lol. Everyone had a good time

[@larrythompson9544]

This brings back a lot to me, I lived right across the road (557) back when John Andrews was the Auctioneer, Those were the good old days. I sure thought Steve or Scott would be there.

[@randyporter3491]

Love his style and showmanship !

[@janeames1513]

i don't know Andy (apparently that is this fella's name) but man oh man can he ever chant...i grew up going to auctions 3 or 4 nights a week ...everything from just flea market junk to livestock and farm equipment..i know a good chant when i hear it ...Andy could sell ice water to a eskimo...he has honed his chant to perfection

[@rweverett]

He is one of the BEST ever as far as I'm concerned! It's such a pleasure to sit at his auctions!

[@ivan00001983]

That's a fine auctioneering :)

[@ctfan1486]

Hard to find a live auction anymore they are all online now.

[@jimmartin7881]

Live Amish auctions going strong since April here, check auctionzip for live auctions too.

[@brendenbenoit7140]

The guys in the back look ecstatic of how much money they're making. I love it lol

[@rweverett]

Because it all goes to a school for the children to learn and have what they need.

[@nathanc3396]

I think that I'd asked the audience to give that buyer a round of applause

[@JudyStinnett-s1o]

I have always enjoyed going to auction

[@chadroeder]

Just sold an epic amish made furniture suite...next thing is a lawn ornament "Hey, whadda ya got here" lol

[@juanmacias5510]

I want to learn how to do this just to be around the house

[@dorothywolgamott2119]

U r Awesome!! U r the best auctioneer ever!!!

[@lawrenceornelas7188]

I worked as a spotter at many auctions. This guy does okay but it depends on the crowd. I worked with a guy that was fast but you had to listen close to keep up with him. I've also worked for guys that made you think of blowing raspberries.

[@rweverett]

Ok? Hell, he's the best!

[@nathanc3396]

I like your Patsy Cline Start! What's that entire one liner?

[@tomtubman]

This guy is very good !! Now if I could only do this lol

[@TheBrandenRoush]

When i saw his last name was Raber I wondered if he was of any relation to Raber tools or Raber shoes in Ohio.

[@lawrenceornelas7188]

I always think of the song " Life Is A Rock" when I hear an auctioneer's call.

[@eulalioguerraguerra6136]

Magnifico lenguaje vocal y corporal.muy bueno.

[@burtbrooks7731]

Wooooo, he is rippin it👍👍 😂 should a sold it at 1030😂😂😂

God bless the good ol state of Ohio.

[@stevelangstroth5833]

I'm going to learn this, then use it at the grocery self-serve checkout. ;-)

[@rweverett]

I'd love to learn how to do it like him, he's the best!

[@ilikezappa]

Good luck. That is years of training. This guy is a 9 th Dan master.

[@d.watson5412]

Uh oh, I'm in trouble. I have to bid on produce (I'm from the area) and I can' understand a word. Will have to use a 'buyer' and pay him til I get used to it or I'll be buying something for way more than I intended, lol

[@rweverett]

Once you get used to him, it's rather easy, honestly. He's the best of the best!

[@wavergamer]

1:09 I love how even the translations can't even handle it. lol

[@rweverett]

He is, by far the best of the best!! He involves the audience so much you cannot help buy love it! I cannot wait until the "auction season" starts again. I'm going to try to get an even better video this year to post. He "makes" the auction!

[@Eddie_Schantz]

Even when Andy is talking at his fastest, he is still easier to understand than Kamela is and he makes more sense too.

[@wsdgpwx.stormchasers]

He says his 8s really fast!

[@Miniaturehorseexpress]

Outstanding 👍👍👍

[@Jazzmaster71]

This guy makes more sense thab anything in these days.

[@rweverett]

And he's so good at it!

[@cajunnathan4586]

Andy is Fantastic!

[@cajunnathan4586]

Do you have any Current videos of Andy in action? Do you plan to make any New Videos of Andy? I've watched all the old one so many times, I'm ready for New ones!😊

Yes, I just took a couple the other day at Farmerstown Auction. I'll get them posted as soon as I can. Thanks for asking!!!!

[@TheClearSight]

amish are allowed to use microphones and speakers?

[@rweverett]

everything is run by a generator so I'm under the impression it's ok. If it were electric, I'd guess NO. Even the mic has batteries in it.

[@andrewhelton8614]

Hes a good auctioneer, he got there money. Hes good!

[@rweverett]

And please keep in mind, this money goes toward running a school for children as well so it all works out well.

[@rynotheredneck7140]

[@rweverett]

Apparently, the Amish can use the microphone and speakers as long as they're hooked up to a generator, which they were.

[@rynotheredneck7140]

Oh did not know that

[@jamesbecker3203]

Some denominations of Amish are aloud to use battery operated power tools As long as it is for there job

[@ashleywilliams3194]

Anyone know how to hire Andy?

[@rweverett]

He must be listed somehow under Andy Raber Auctions, but I don't know if he does anything but Amish auctions?

[@Killemquietly]

👍

[@dangood1975]

When Andy is up in our area, we go to his auction. Its worth going even if your not going bid on anything. The part when he joke around in Pennsylvania Dutch. I can't translate fast enough to catch the joke.
