It's a record !

An explosion of online sales
In 2020, this figure had risen to 2.9 billion euros (-14%) after a sharp increase in 2019 to 3.3 billion euros (+12% compared to 2018), specified the same source.
"The explosion of online auctions explains this good result", according to the Sales Council which estimates that "France should confirm its fourth place on the world market, after China, the United States and the United Kingdom ".
Digital transformation is "one of the major successes of auction houses' response to the crisis with nine out of ten auction houses (which) now use digital platforms", out of "more than 400 auction houses in France and over 600 auctioneers,” says the Sales Council.
The organization will publish a detailed review of the global auction market in June.
