Recently I placed an order with E-teknet, they have prototype specials for 2/4/6 layer boards. I ordered four 6-layer boards (6 inches x 5 inches) for roughly $360 with shipping & handling included. I looked around the net and I couldn't really find anything better, so I recommend E-teknet (http://www.e-teknet.com/), give it a try if you're only looking for prototyping boards, their mass volume prices aren't bad either. I highly recommend them!!!

Check out PCBShopper.com. It is a price-comparison site I created for PCB manufacturing. You enter your board's specs and it shows you the prices and delivery times from over 20 different manufacturers in Asia, North America and Europe.

As for quality: there are Amazon-style reviews of many of the manufacturers, written by visitors to PCBShopper.

PCBShopper is supported by paid advertising, but companies do not pay to be included in the price comparison. The companies in the price comparison are chosen based on whether I think they would be of interest to my users (I look for well-known manufacturers, manufacturers in different parts of the world, and manufacturers that offer different price structures. And of course, they must all have on-line quote forms that PCBShopper can use to fetch prices.)

Hello angelageorge,

From my personal experience we have been working with technotronix.us from last 15 years and they have been good in terms of turn around and over all build quality of my products, we did start with them from prototype and also they have done bulk manufacturing of us in many occasions. Overall we have found them responsive.

Long back ago I had an experience with one of the PCB manufacturer in CA, they provide quick PCB turn time as less as 24 hour. I had my first PCB prototyping from there & now I used to order my PCB from there from last 10 years. I found them very responsive.

Good stuff mcgyvr, this "Just placed our first order with this company and were impressed with their pricing. Again top notch quality,etc...
http://www.circuitboards.com/ - Proto Panel Deal" explained what I think OSHPark is doing, they bundle boards together and handle the shipping and organizing. Well worth it to me since I'm getting prototype's built that can't be had without buying developer tools for hundreds of dollars. Between OSHPark and OSHStencil projects are getting done without breaking the bank.

The thing that is missing is total cost of per board with shipping combined. What I pay OSHPark for a PCB with free shipping and PCBway at $35 makes a huge difference in cost per board.
The China PCB market is very competitive, some of those negative reviews have to be from competitors, who orders the same broad made by 5 PCB builders? The other improvement is to list what is acceptable to get a PCB built: Gerbers? Eagle? PADS? I find a lot of vendors neglect to list acceptable PCB file source. Thanks for the site Bob, I read the vendors AD's since most of them I've never heard of.
It would be a good thing to give a DRC file for DipTrace to vendors and verify they can accept DipTrace exports without issues.

I do not agree with mcgyvr about PCB manufacturing price usually be higher for companies with online quotation. Highly experienced PCB Manufacturers have the capabilities to offer online PCB quotation for small Qty and large volume based on their years' experience, and they should be responsible for the online price their calculators provided, what matters to their price set should be circuit boards quality & lead time.

I'm with PCBCart (this is by no mean to advertise), and we offer TWO PCB Price Calculators - one for PCB Prototyping and one for Mass PCB Manufacturing. For our Mass PCB Manufacturing price calculator, we calculate the mfg fee based on the basic circuti spec and customer selected lead time. You can get a rough PCB mfg fee for circuit boards with impedance control, gold finger, via in pad, half-cut/castellated Holes and many other advanced options. You can get instant online quotation for any quantity of circuit boards by yourself 24/7/365.
