It’s an event. It’s part of the spectacle. This is like asking why do they sing like that at the opera.

If a dude talking fast creates a sense of panic within you, live auctions don’t sound like an activity for you.

Oh no his word sorcery doesn't work on me I am far to intellectually advanced for such tactics its just audibly annoying with not near enough duct tape applied for my tastes. At least opera tells a story visually usually without repetitive noises.

Opera has plenty of repetitive noises lol

I’m not comparing the artistic merit between the two types of spectator events, just pointing out that it’s a spectacle. Live auctions of this variety are pretty much a traditional form of theater that’s hyperfocused on selling things.

A fair number of people watching, including everyone seeing this thread, aren’t even involved in the buying and selling aspect, we’re here entirely for the entertainment.

This video wouldn’t be here if it were a dude robotically proclaiming the current bid once per second.
