Expected award price

likely award for this notice, from its published estimate of €2,164,000
€1.6M to €2.2M

Comparable awards in this country and sector came in at a median of 90% of their published estimate, half of them between 76% and 100%, based on 219 awards of the last 3 years.

Each award is compared with the estimate of the same lots, framework agreements excluded. A published estimate may include options and renewals, so an award under it is not always a discount.

What this market pays

The buyer has too few awards of its own in this sector, so this is the range of the last 2,000 awards for Radio, TV & communication equipment in Spain.
