content: Haha, 10 * 5 x 5cm PCB's (as you would get for $9.99 everywhere else), include tooling costs and shipping etc it comes to $120!!That's about £80, to put it into perspective, I bought 10 * 10x10cm with white solder mask and black silkscreen before Christmas with shipping for £18-£20 from Smart Prototyping...No thanks!

content: It's still too high.For a quantity of 10 boards at 5 x 5cm a piece from China from PCBJOINT is more than 4 x the price of a quantity of 10 boards at 10 x 10cm a piece from other suppliers (if you take into account I had different silk and mask which added to the cost), you may offer finer trace capabilities, but for those of us not interested in these features it is pushing the price beyond other suppliers' to be feasible.1) I don't care if it's pooled.2) I check my own work and always been OK.3) I have never had any quality issues from PCB's ordered from other manufacturers in China, in fact, some have been better quality than UK "made" ones, *cough*Garner*cough*Osborne*cough*.Others may be happy to pay more than other suppliers, that is their prerogative, my opinion is that the price is too high.

content: thanks for your reply!this is a new way of PCB prototype, they get the requirement of the several customers, than combine them together then product it. so the quality may be not guaranteed.we PCBJOINT need do product it individually and also need the quality to be guaranteed, so the cost higher.thanks!Quote from: Wilksey on March 10, 2015, 05:02:04 pm

content: Vendors like this will never match the pricing you get at Itead etc, for low tech boards.For higher technology boards the prices seems very good, eg. for Qty 10 of 8 layer 180x32mm boards with impedance control comes out to $386, better than the $500 quote I got from OurPCB.Price InformationQuantity: 10Unit Price:$12.16$9.73PCB Board Basic Cost:$121.63$97.3Tooling Cost:$316.8$253.44Shipping Cost: $35.44Total Cost:$473.87$386.18

content: Some suggestions...The first page people see should unambiguously state your "unique selling point", i.e. in what way you arebetterthan your competition. You have 30s to convince me to look at another page on your website.You don't state your "stackup". This means that with 4 layer boards I cannot determine what the track width should be in order to get a specified track impedance. That's a killer for medium and high speed digital signals, as well as RF/analogue

content: it is a real company?1 it does not show any products here, just a table.2 there is no telephone number.3 i am a sales clerk, often see email telling me" you have a inquiry and please log in alibaba or ebay for checking" the web looks very like, but when getting to the link, it needs me to log in and ask my email and code.4 the facebook, twitter, linked-in tags do not work, if a company really designs his web beautiful as its, (as to the web i think is good), there is no reason for the tags do not work.5 no address, shenzhen is a very large city in China,a safe company will write the company address as detailed as possible.This web exits just for when logging and recording your email and code?
