Hi Steve,

Sounds a bit dodge to me, they only take orders on Monday? Maybe the PCB process takes a week start to finish? Good price though so maybe worth a go.

Hi

I've been dealing with ProtoPIC for a couple of years now for components and sensors etc. Always been reliable.
They seem to be part of a larger electronic /software design company in Scotland. Maybe that's where the boards are made.
1 in 10 people understand binary, the other one doesn't !

Hi Steve

Try these http://www.seeedstudio.com/service/index.php?r=pcb
I've had great results using the $10 service, boards were good quality, screen printed well and readable, but they do take a while to arrive, but to be honest for the price its worth the wait
