content: I've been on the receiving end of some PCBs for a prototype runs from Beta-layout a few years back, I hope they are better now than what I got back then.Issues like:Soldermask covering padsPads with tinning missingThe fuzziest smudgiest silkscreen I have ever seenSilkscreen so skewed/offset it went over padsThe meanest size of nasty/pointless/frameless freebie stencil ever seenFailure to v-scoreFast, yes.Cheap, no.Worth it, IMHO No

content: I get 6 layers (and a lot of 4 layers) from JLCPCB. 4 layers takes 7 (max 8 ) days (weekends also counts in that!) from I press "submit" until DHL drops the PCBs at my door. Prices beats everything else I have tried (the european houses are at best double in price and not faster). Quality is always superb

content: There used to be a true PCB pooling service in Europe -http://www.pcb-pool.com- I don't know if they're still operational, but I don't think they can beat Chinese companies. There is no pooling services in China, I guess. I usedhttp://www.wellpcb.comfor 6-layer and they were very good - much better quality than PCBWay.

content: Quote from: SWR on March 21, 2019, 01:27:06 pmHoly cow. They have cut their rates at least in half since a couple of years agoI will definetly have them make some boards again. When you factor in DHL+Customs and all the headaches when you and the other guy don't understand each other, for one or two boards the final cost is the samePS: Allpcb STILL send spam. I place very few orders with them now and every time i receive the usual spam emails.

content: One more vote for WellPCB. Additionals (like edge plating) are very affordable too which is great.
