A MONTH later than planned with a catalogue that was significantly smaller than last year’s the Goffs November Sale concluded on Sunday evening with a set of results which fell some way off the levels of 2019.

As with most auctions that have taken place over the last nine months there are a number of factors to consider when examining the final figures. At the close of the three days the auction had taken in just under €17.5m which was a 33% decline on last year. The average of €36,743 was down by 12%, the €20,000 median dropped by nine points and the clearance rate fell from 78% to 75%.
