Jerkey used Elecrow once and they fucked up the order, sent boards of the wrong thickness, and at least 2 out of 15 boards were defective.  If this weren't enough, they have a "new" and "old" website and they can't decide which one you should use, neither site uses TLS, and they're both horrible, and they reject your credit card even if it's fine.  Then send emails saying your order is on its way, even though it's been rejected, and weeks later you ask WTF and they're like "oops"

Jerkey says DON'T USE ELECROW.  Rab only recommends them because he enjoys being contrary to Jerkey.
Jerkey says DON'T USE ELECROW.


Rab ordered [http://www.elecrow.com/10pcs-2-layer-pcb-p-1175.html 10pcs- 2 layer PCB] three times. Each order was satisfactory. No extra charge for typical silkscreen colors. Faint marks on the pads indicate 100% e-test. No manufacturer's mark placed on either side. 2-3 extra copies were included with each order, possibly to offset any failures. No electrical failures. Some PCBs exhibited: light scratches in solder mask; minor inconsistencies in board outline routing; silkscreen faded or smudged. With Shenzhen DHL shipping (~$20 extra), 7 calendar day turnaround from order placed to received. New/old website setup dichotomy is confusing. Have not used the new website.
