  • I have gone through every Survivor Auction and found the worst purchases throughout all the season. Some items were good for one player and bad for another, others were very little portions (especially for the price), and other items were either just gross or completely useless. Tell me your opinion. Which purchase has been the very worst in Survivor history?

    The Survivor Auction is an event that occasionally appears in Survivor.
    About
    The Survivor Auction is a special Reward Challenge where the players are temporarily relieved from competing in strenuous challenges. Instead, they will be given a specific sum of money where they must outbid the other contestants for certain items, mostly food, with instances where a temporary use of amenities or a visit from loved ones are also offered. There are also instances where there are game-changing powers that contestants can outbid on, such as the power to send another player to Exile Island, an advantage at the next Immunity Challenge, or a clue to a Hidden Immunity Idol. The host would pound a gavel on the auction table, denoting that the item has already been sold.
    At pre-determined points, the host will offer covered items which will remain covered until there is a winning bidder. In connection to covered items, there are also "trap items," which reveal an undesirable prize, such as exotic food items or boiled water from their camp. Also, the host will sometimes tempt the contestant to trade his/her chosen item for another sealed item, which sometimes reveal a "better" item(s), or sometimes a more undesirable one(s).
    In recent seasons, players are to outbid on items that would benefit the entire tribe, such as all-tribe food items to be eaten in a certain amount of time, or extra food supply. This could serve as doing a favor for the tribe, in order to establish a better position in the game, perhaps expecting their tribe to return the favor.
    Rules
    Prior to the auction starting, the host announces the guidelines of the auction. In order for a contestant to bid, they must adhere to the following rules:
    Castaways are given a predetermined amount of money (which may vary from local currency to USD) and can choose to bid as many times as they wish using however much money they have.
    The host would open the bidding with a flat rate that follows the prescribed increment (if bidding is at $20 increments, the host may open the bidding at $40). This rule has been abandoned in recent seasons.
    Bids will be in increments at the host's discretion. Castaways can, however, immediately bid a large amount, or all of the money in their possession, in an attempt to instantly win a desired item.
    "Pooling" (sharing money along with the item up for auction with other players) is permitted, as long as they share the item and/or vice versa. This option has been voided since Cook Islands.
    Food which is bought must be eaten before leaving the auction area.
    The auction will usually end without notice.
    Sealed/covered items will remain covered until the item is sold.
    Host Jeff Probst has revealed that after the auction, the contestants may keep their unspent money. Jeff even claimed that some contestants do not bid at all so that they can keep the money.[1]
    If two or more people who have all their money want to bid all of it on the same item, they will draw rocks to decide who wins. This rule was implemented starting with Cagayan.[2]
    Impact
    The auction is well received by fans, primarily with seeing the contestants enjoying food and sharing it with their tribemates or keeping it for themselves. It also provides insight as to whether or not a castaway will risk what they have bought in order for a concealed item, which is typically exotic....

It seems that all they did was boil them or something so they were probably kinda bland but other than that, heart is just a muscle and eating them when cooked normally is like eating regular chicken meat, just a bit more chewy

      I've said this before on other videos. He was in a position where if he shared it with anyone it would reveal his alliances. He was in the middle of two different alliances, so taking the pie for himself was probably his best choice in the moment.

However there were letters from home and they all agreed they would buy it for 20 so they could still all have the same chance at getting the advantage, but that one guy decided to backtrack and not buy the letter, even though the others did so he would automatically win with the most amount of money. At the end people were returning their letters tho and he decided to just buy them. Hope that clears it up

Mike went last and didn't buy one. Essentially tricking the group and securing the advantage for himself.

    I'm gonna be a bit of a critic here but some of these weren't even purchased, such as Reynold's coconut, Danni's uncooked corn, Erik's octopus, Ian's live crabs, you get my point. I don't think I can agree with them being purchases when the person who bought the item didn't even get the items because they managed to trade for something decent. Kass' rice is the exception because it was auctioned up next and Trish bought it.
    I was actually hoping they were more just people overspending for dumb items, not them getting hosed on a mystery plate that turned out to be a gag item. For example, Skupin paying 500 instantly for some cheese and wine, Natalie instantly jumping way up to 200 for a PB&J, and things like that. I did get a kick out of you putting up practically the whole Australian auction minus only a few actual good items that they had.
    Also, everyone talks about Penner having an all time auction performance (Luke Toki from Australian's version not withstanding), and I'd agree with that take, but I think Alex could have given him a run for his money had he picked the lasagna. Later on he also got a steak.

      Yeah, I debated whether or not I should keep them in the edit and ultimately decided it was fun to see what could have been.

      And yes, I agree about Australia...most items in that auction were terrible 😂

      Randy Bailey too had quite a performance with the chocolate chip cookies, especially with Sugar.
