BOARD BUYING
How to Be a Good PCB Customer
I am a PCB broker, a middleman who buys and sells printed circuit boards. Not only does my company have to meet the needs of our customers, but we also must accommodate the needs of the manufacturers in Asia that we work with. Otherwise, quality product do not ship on time.
