Who are the good online PC board suppliers for small batch, prototype, DIYers, etc.? I'll be doing some small power supply, amplifier boards, probably 2 layer with KiCad. I would be looking for small quantities, like 2-10.
I have used the following three suppliers with no trouble at all. You can compare and get a quote online before actually ordering. All are in China.
China PCB Prototype & Fabrication Manufacturer - PCB Prototype the Easy Way
PCB Manufacturer & PCB Assembly | Advanced Circuits - NextPCB
Seeed Studio Bazaar, The IoT Hardware enabler.

A tip for you, check out the price for 10 off as it is usually the same price for 5 off pcb's. All suppliers I think have a minimum order of 5. That way you can sell a few to help recoup the costs. Postage costs are variable, but you can select what method you want.
PCBWay are very good and cheap as well - Nelson Pass uses them for his boards, but the Pass Labs commercial pcb's are still done locally in the US.

Thanks, but I don't think I'll be selling anything soon. This is more of a learning experience. I haven't done PC board design in over 20 years, and things have changed a lot.
