Hello guys.

Do you know any companies in Netherlands (Holland) selling dedicated servers? Please let me know...

you can go for colocation, it is better option in long run.
Check out www.nxs.nl and www.widexs.nl.
Order a dell server which you can pay around 60-120 euro per month and colocate it for 70 euro. It will be cheaper than dedicated in NL.

Thanks guys! Just curious: is it possible to buy bandwidth in Netherlands cheaper then $2/GB?

No, I think that is not possible unless you want your server placed in the USA by an Dutch company, 2 USD per GB is fairly cheap for such quality providers.

Make sure your server is connected to AMS-IX or Level-3.

Good luck :)

Cheapest reasonable quality transfer you'll find in the Netherlands is round the 1 EURO/GIG mark. Can't remember the company name. I got sooo close with buying a server and colocating it with them about a year ago...

Trueserver.nl is only for colocation (I asked them and they said they don't do it now and are not going to offer it in the future).
Dedicated in the Netherlands is expensive since they charge way too much for support (due to high salary standards compared to the US). There are also hosts offering only 10 GB of traffic with a €200 p/m server.
The best way is to buy your own server (if your know Linux) and colocate it with TrueServer.nl. These guys rock and have a good and stable network connection and I believe you can choose from three different NOC's.
Don't expect to much managing of the server, of prepare to pay a lot of money.
What also a good possibility is to find a dedicated server provider which is located in the NAC. By testing a couple of times I got as results that the numbers of hops to TrueServer and the NAC are the same, and the ping differenses just a few ms. And the price is way better!!!

Good luck,
