"With such an average price and a sales percentage of more than 90 percent, we are proud to be back as an auction," says Foal Auction Prinsjesdag chairman Arjan van der Waaij. "We enjoyed this 29th edition and it was great to be able to organise a live event again. An auction with guests and a wonderful ambiance brings some extra charm for an auction like Foal Auction Prinsjesdag; this is even more motivation for the future," Van der Waaij looks back and ahead.
