Honestly, this site started as a joke. A weekend script tossed together to consolidate PCB orders from the Dangerous Prototypes team. It sat quietly and unnoticed until Hack a Day told the world. Turns out people like cheap, no-nonsence PCBs at near-China local prices and no-markup shipping. The original script, not even worthy of the word "store", ran for three years and handled tens of thousands of orders.
