[[User:Amatus]]:
I used Gold Phoenix for the [https://github.com/AustinHackers/ahabadge AHA! badge] v1, seems to be on the expensive side but they did good work. I didn't provide them with a pick-n-place file, they figured it out from the gerbers.
They sent me a query about it because my footprint for my buttons had 5 pads but the buttons only had 4 legs.
They edited my silk screen for the better, I had a label that collided with a diode and they moved it.
They sent me 5 assembled boards to verify before they made the rest.
They also gave me some resistors for free because I had the wrong quantity on my BOM.
They pointed out the error and I was like "plz populate both those resistors, quote me for the extra parts" and they were all "don't worry about it," of course it was only like $0.14 worth of extra parts.
