I ordered 3 different PCBs for the first time, and overall had a great experience. Of the three designs I sent, one was .9 mm thick, with the other smaller designs being .8 mm. All of them feel nice and sturdy, and the solderpads have been durable enough to withstand several desolderings of SMD and through hole components. The green soldermask and white print are all sharp and easy to read. They add a small tracking number to the silkscreen on the back. The turnaround time is quite fast for the cost of the valuespec service. From order to delivery in my mailbox took 8 days. I live in a large city in Utah. The shipping emails appear to be time based, and don't actually indicate when the boards were shipped, since I received the shipping email the day the boards arrived.

I recently needed a couple pieces of a small board. It wasn't a rush job, but I didn't want to wait for a slow international parcel service, either, so I went with BasicPCB. I used their Value-spec service, where you don't get to control the board specs. Instead, the board rides along on whatever panel that had the excess capacity to absorb it. For this order, the board ended up being 0.8 mm, with excellent registration, great looking matte-green soldermask and very sharp silkscreen. It's a bit of a lottery, as my next order could very well have landed on a panel with a looser spec. Order was placed on Jan 4, "shipped" the night of Jan 11, postmarked Jan 12 (from Aurora, Colorado), and arrived on Jan 18 (near Los Angeles, California). Three PCBs (1.5 in x 3.0 in), for $19, delivered. The boards were shipped in a padded mailer, sent first class with a USPS tracking number, but no return address. BTW, you can either order three PCBs as a "ValueSpec" order which can vary in thickness. Or you can order five PCBs (or more) to get the industry standard 1.6mm thickness with their "BasicSpec" service. There apparently is no way to place an order for Four PCB.

Fantastic Service, Perfect PCB's easy and fast

Ordered from BasicPCB.com several times now and always been super happy with their product. Generally do the random material PCBs and it is fun to open them up and see what thickness and color arrived this time. Would highly recommend their service.

Got 3 prototype boards delivered for under $7 WOW!. And they are perfect. I didn't have to compromise on quality to get a small quantity of prototypes.

This is my 3rd order. I chose the minimum of 5 boards to get the thicker PCB. As usual, the quality is outstanding. They are more expensive than other board houses but they are made in the USA. 4 day turn around. Buy American! Great service.

Beautiful boards, fast, and the price is very low!

This was my 20th order and my first review. The boards have been mostly small, but one was 7x8.5". The quality has always been excellent and this has been the lowest cost alternative for Made in the USA. Chinese boards may be cheaper, but shipping adders may make that not so. I will always buy American when possible and you should too.
