@@jordand6641 They used the whole Mike Holloway thing as an excuse to cancel the auction. Geeze just tell them before hand they'll be no big advantage in the game. They didn't like FIVE people refusing to bid on food to get an advantage in the game, and the whole Will and Shirin nastiness stemming from Will's auction win. But World's Apart was unique and they didn't have to cancel the auction because of that.
They were SO DAMN stingy on Australian Outback. Geeze. I don't like watching them be that damn stingy. There was that one reward challenge where they gave the winner ONE SLICE of pizza. Which they made him share a tiny bit to each person plus a phone call from home. I actually really enjoy them getting a big spread for reward not this crap.
@@trueCrimeGuruYes That is what was cool about it back then, something so simple was so valuable. I stopped watching survivor when they stopped allowing them to do things like hunt.
@@matthewplace7329 it's called auction technique. Most people who go to auction do that to silently bid so only the auctioneer notices they bid. Colby is not a douche, you are just judgmental as hell lol
LLLOOOVVVEEE Amber vs. Colby @ 2:06. Amber: "100" Colby: lifts his finger Amber: "140" Colby: lifts his finger Amber: "180" Colby: lifts his finger Amber: "220" Colby: moves his finger Amber: "Damn you.........260" Colby: moves his finger .............HA HA HA HA HA HA HA
no way! it meant so much more because they had nothing else to go off of. I think 4 doritos meant just as much to them as when they started to give massive meals in the later seasons
In the season that just finished (David Vs. Goliath) there was a challenge where Christian got to talk to Jeff for about 5 hours, obviously they couldn't and wouldn't air all of it, but after the season, Christian did an interview and talked about what he talked about during that challenge. One of the things he asked Jeff was if the auction would come back: "Jeff said the Survivor auction, in his estimation, will not come back. I told him I liked it! His reasoning was that it's not as interesting to watch hungry people eat food anymore."

The peanut butter is actually a very high IQ play. Full of protein. I'd never go in on something like chips or pop. Go for something that will give you energy.
I just realized something. This season was filmed over Thanksgiving, so offering the plate of turkey, potatoes, even a bit of cranberry sauce made so much sense
There´s something incredibly satisfying about watching hungry people eat/enjoy food. That´s one of the reasons I like cooking for others, just to see those faces.
Funny when they got back to camp, most of them where feeling a little sick from eating so much: Roger comes back from the "bathroom" and says "That felt great, almost as good as eating a cheeseburger".
They are actually using Australian currency. Now that this is one of their early ones, I want to point out that amber Mariano is one of the most deadly players in survivor. In season 8 rob and amber went all the way to the end, and, they also got married of any of you saw survivor all stars. Ambers old name is Amber Brkich
Back then they paid like 200 for 6 french fries, and on the last seasons that did the auction people paid like 100 for 2 cheesburgers, an overflowing plate of french fries and a pepsi
It’s funny how much they give the survivors now😂
Lester Richardson IV people getting entire cakes now 😂
they don't even do the auction nowadays
@@Comaful why did they stop the auctions?

Max Hey
Right, but it seems they offered WAY more items.
@@trueCrimeGuruYes That is what was cool about it back then, something so simple was so valuable. I stopped watching survivor when they stopped allowing them to do things like hunt.
it's so weird how little they gave at the auctions then
Survivor Swapped but all of the prices weren't as bad as they are now. Like nobody got a bad prize (except the water but hey it was good quality)
Ronnie Tee y not? Y don’t they do actuations now?
Then: 4 Doritos
Now: Whole plate of Doritos
BAYZJAYZ Now it’s a whole tray of nachos loaded with everything you can imagine, but at least they weren’t giving out pig brain
@@TheMurrmursonbottle true true
"Thats 10$ a chip" ... Runs up 200+ tab for chocolate.
“ this is my favorite game in the whoooole wide world”
She was just driving up the price so the other girl would spend more
She even said “I know she wants it”
It's understandable actually. Chocolate has sugar which they definitely were needing. But doretos and salsa is just yummy, no benefit.
* Wins the game and gets 1million dollars *
@@---zj4xj There was a full meal in this auction - which was even better then peanut butter and chocolate. Tina was just being a troll. xD
Survivor needs to do an auction like this again. Bits of food. NO advantages or clues. Just plain nourishment. Nobody would expect it.
But the advantages make a whole new point in the game
Advantages should be secretly attached to food
@@eliascharchr6035 Auction's gone because of how's become all about the advantages. Defeats the purpose.
@@melo3427 they did that in Australian Survivor: Champions Vs Contenders In the auction
It would be great because so many people would not bid on anything thinking there would be an advantage then bam auction over.
Idk why but I just love that Colby just lifts a finger to do one of his bids
Thats the right bidding
YUUUUP!-Dave Hester #StorageWars

Colby: lifts his finger
Amber: "220"

.............HA HA HA HA HA HA HA
Anddd then they banged after the season was over
BingeFest1 Oh please. Colby and Jerri were so the ones who banged.
LOL
“Sold to movie star for 280.”
This is the most miserable auction I have seen so far
Well it was the 2nd season
In early survivor, especially this one, they legit starved the contestants to though. Like this group didnt have rice for days I remember.
no way! it meant so much more because they had nothing else to go off of. I think 4 doritos meant just as much to them as when they started to give massive meals in the later seasons
Well it was the first one...
that’s a lot of peanut butter
I miss the auctions; I hope they bring them back but they might have taken them out because people just want the advantages

@@lux6371 I hope that's not true but that sucks if so
@@GamingFanactic911 Maybe someone like Christian saying he liked it will encourage Jeff to bring it back, we can only hope.

Back: then 6 french fries!
Now: 2 WHOLE CHICKENS A CAKE FRIES AND A MILKSHAKE (sold for 100)

Amber Brkich is naturally so beautiful
You can’t forget about Elisabeth
@@joshlaughlin5437 I was glad she stayed as long as she did 😂, she’s very nice on the eyes.
Play Survivuh with Ambuh.
3:48 OMG, Amber's expression. Just the cutest.
Aaaah Amber was so cute😂🥺❤️
260 DOLLARS FOR 1 PIECE OF CHOCOLATE?!?!?!?
They haven’t eaten it days what do u expect
jxyden Those people Are starving. They haven’t ate in days
Honestly I’d pay 1000 if I was on my period or even like remotely hungry
thank you cbs
Yup RatCookie1, that’s right.
1:31 this face needs to be a meme
vellichor on DEPOP 🤣
When u see boobs for the first time

“that’s a lot of peanut butter”
same size as the sample at Costco
Ambers initial reaction was to throw the water on Jeff😂
That's so pure and cute
6 french fries??? thats just mean....
Fun Fact: Amber was the first person to buy a "booby prize" in the history of the auction. (I like how she wanted to douse Jeff with the water too.)
What’s the booby prize? Why do they even sell a booby prize
Unni ChaeYoung a prize that sucks, usually something boring/gross
@Gerard Rietdijk Yes because Australia was the second season and season 1 did not have a trap prize. You just suck at timelines.
Why was fries a booby trap
@@Cutiemaan the water
4 dariotoes
Fried chicken and french fries
Doreeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeetos
4 Doritos chips, 3 crackers, homie Nick shopping at the Costco sample section....😅
LOL
The peanut butter is actually a very high IQ play. Full of protein. I'd never go in on something like chips or pop. Go for something that will give you energy.
Saekoa it doesn’t really matter
carbs give you more energy and that peanut butter probably had less protein than the burger or ham
No Sana No Life The portions too small. It won’t make a difference.
Sanatea *No Sana No Life* You say this now, from your house. You have no idea what it’s like to be out there
4:06-For a second or two I thought that was Sprite
I love that Colby thinks he’s so cool cos he doesn’t need to speak whilst bidding he can just do a little finger flick😂
Right??? I find him so annoying haha. Doesnt help that Jeff kept calling him “movie star” I feel it got to his head
I honestly kinda like the smaller portions because they had so many items so basically everyone got something!
I just realized something. This season was filmed over Thanksgiving, so offering the plate of turkey, potatoes, even a bit of cranberry sauce made so much sense
jeff did them dirty
without starving on an island i’d devour most of the food in one bite
6 fries and ranch 🤦♂️
Eric Mesick 4 chips and salsa too
*"That's two dollars a chip right there"* iconic
@@thatsEforEveryone *10
I love survivor auctions! Wish they would be like this now, no idol, no advantage, no loved one letters. Just straight up food!
2:57 raincoat lady, lMao i love how she straight up went to money counting mode😂😂😂 dem it's hilarious
That's Tina Wesson. What on earth.
Amber is so freaking beautiful
So crazy that this was the second season but it was so well thought of, and so abstract and the video quality!
That's because it wasn't really the second season. There was a season filmed before it that never aired.
Damn!! That lightning strike at 1:29. Pretty damn close to them! Not effects either! Jeff's reaction is funny.
Amber pretending to throw the water on Jeff is iconic 🤣
After watching WoW it’s crazy seeing baby Amber
Amber is beautiful specially her nose wow
its okay amber, you came back and won in all stars.
In those days Amber probably could have thrown the water at him without getting tossed off the show.
this is the best quality clip of survivor pre-season 17/18 on youtube.
Wish I could find past seasons in this quality
Kevinn on hulu u can
In Australia it’s on Paramount
in 2020 this is still my all time favorite series!!!! AUSTRALIA.....
Why
@@Omaralangari9Because it’s Australia
They still starving to death even with that food🤣
Don't you dare diss Herbert river water. I live there and the water tastes amazing.
Go swimming and just drink it.
You should try it, its a good time.
There´s something incredibly satisfying about watching hungry people eat/enjoy food. That´s one of the reasons I like cooking for others, just to see those faces.
I loved this video. And i love how that one lady gave her money to the other lady to help them get the food ahaha.
S2: a shot of wine and 6 peanuts
S17: 12 litres of aged wine and a wagyu beef steak seared with vegetables and soy sauce
4 Doritos and salsa
Amber: *WOW!*
I kinda like that they don't give a ton. This definitely isn't enough but the new auctions DO give tons...
I wish they still did them
Then: a chip for $500
Now: large steak, potato, and a soda for 20 bucks
not really accurate but :/
A good piece of Survivor trivia is: "Who was the first person to buy something at an auction?" I don't think many people would guess Nick Brown!
That burger part was the most satisfying thing I’ve ever seen
I can’t believe Jeff said big ole thing of peanut butter with a straight face
I had such a crush on Amber in this season.
Amber: Hold on, hold on, is that mashed potatoes I see there?
She’s adorable I love her
Funny when they got back to camp, most of them where feeling a little sick from eating so much: Roger comes back from the "bathroom" and says "That felt great, almost as good as eating a cheeseburger".
This makes me sooo hungry hahaha, love it
This season is still on of my favorites back when it was just the bear basics
Wow! That tiny piece of food
My favorite season!
Why 6 french fries only?
Nick be going all out with the bidding😂
They should be ashamed at the portion sizes back then. Waste of money.
ive been waiting for this!!thank you!
Listen close you can hear something weird at 1:58
I’ve been knowing that lol
Now this was an auction!
They are actually using Australian currency. Now that this is one of their early ones, I want to point out that amber Mariano is one of the most deadly players in survivor. In season 8 rob and amber went all the way to the end, and, they also got married of any of you saw survivor all stars. Ambers old name is Amber Brkich
These are some sacred memories
now they give whole chickens, entire rib cages- 😂
3 dorritos? 6 french fries? Nah , Probst , don't be so generous
=)
6 french fries BRO !!! they could’ve bought large fries from maccas for 2 bucks damn they were tight
When Survivor was still wholesome and pure
Everybody eating but Amber...that had to be rough. But she got the dew and that's the best drink ever
Nobody is better at Survivor than Stephanie and Rupert 👍👍 they're the best ever 😎
then why haven’t they won
Tina : "It costs more than 10 dollars a CHIP !!!" Me literally being frugal hahahah
Really high quality for a show from 2002
Omg this is on video finally
In the past I don't know auction works but these auctions teach me the auction works
I love auctions💓
Old Survivor is best Survivor
Back then they paid like 200 for 6 french fries, and on the last seasons that did the auction people paid like 100 for 2 cheesburgers, an overflowing plate of french fries and a pepsi
The old school survivors watched the newer ones now like “see in my day, they starved us” lol or probably like “maaaan that’s some bullshit lol”
Whoa the framerate of this video is very smooth.
Austrailan $20 different now
No it isn't?
Then: four fries
Now: 8 pieces of chicken and lots of fries
You mean six fries?
Calisay Hard2Kill well anyways it was just a example so it doesn't matter
Yea
Calisay Hard2Kill u wrote it
Who else is going on a marathon of these auction videos 🤣
I do really think this was shot back in Venezuela... those food portions...
Colby Donaldson now host the History channel Alone after the episode interviews. The man has aged damn good.
I like Amber she's a cutie
@Peter McGill your point?
Yeah that's why rob is crazy inlove with her, have u seen her stuff magazine photo's?
classic survivor, love it
damn, Amber was a cutie 😍
Keith’s face at 3:30
They must feel robbed watching modern day survivor auctions
“ that’s a lot of peanut butter” not even a table spoon haha
Oh my that looked like a good midnight snack
These are so much better to watch when you have the food with you. I had Doritos and peanut butter and chocolate with me.
In the early days: 4 nachos, blob of peanut butter
Now:a bowl of nachos with salsa and everything, a massive bowl of peanut peanut butter.
Excellent.
Omg the Australian notes !!!!!
Colby ended up hosting a tv show, it was on history channel. It was like a sharpshooting contest show.
