I tried placing an order for a 4-layer board, and it sat waiting for panelization for 4 days. On the 4th day, the order was cancelled, and I received a refund.

I’ve tried emailing, but I am getting no response at all - so I don’t know what the problem is. My next option is Sierra Proto Express, but they want $140 for 2 boards, and I had to alter the board substantially to pass their hole density requirement. I’d much rather get the original design, which is smaller, from BatchPCB for $50 - but it’s an FPGA board, so 4-layer is practically a requirement.

Thanks!

EDIT: Yes, they are still available. I apparently uploaded the drill file with an upper-case extension. (.DRL instead of .drl) Apparently this is important, so I’m uploading with the extension corrected.
