News from the manufacturer

I've had a sad notification from the manufacturer, they no longer made in Italy boards at the advertised price, they will be made in China with guaranteed same quality (their words).


They still manufacture in Italy but at much higher prices (over 2 times).


I've checked with the other two manufacturer (Chinese) I've used in the past with good results (one better than the other) and they jump from 50 to 75 and to 100 boards, no intermediate numbers.


So, in general, between 25 kits and 50 kits (with the exception of 36 kits=74 PCBs) the Italian supplier is still the only option but boards will no longer be manufactured in Italy.


Please confirm that it's fine to still proceed with the Italian supplier and made in China boards.
