• Construction market (€30 -€200 per desk)

You can often order wooden sheets and have it cut at almost every hardware store in the Netherlands. This is often cheap and beautiful. This way you have a new magazine for a usually favorable price. The only drawback is the frame. You can choose to do steel beams since that is the trend, but that is usually quite pricey.

• Facebook Marketplace (Free -€80 per desk)

Once again Facebook is a gold mine if you are looking for cheap options. But unlike office chairs, it is very ugly if you put a different desks in a room. Often this will look sloppy to very ugly. So if you are looking for the easy option to score desks, be sure to take a look at Facebook.
