dirtypcbs is $14 for qty 10 of 25 sq cm boards or 250 sq cm total. So 1500 sq cm of boards from dirtypcbs would cost about $14 times 6 or $84.
Note that ethically, outsourcing to China is the modern version of handing syphillis blankets to indians. "Well, they're warm blankets, and they did ask for it, and anything is morally acceptable if the victim is tricked into accepting it, if you're really screwed up ethically". It only costs $50 more not to participate in something as ethically distasteful as Chinese manufacturing and you get the product in a day not a week without trashing the environment and while treating human beings like humans, even if they are not white.
Also, if you live on the west coast, you and your kids are breathing the airborne pollution from those Chinese plants for the rest of us.
- LeifCarrotson 11y ago60 square inches per board is enormous, but they don't care because the material is cheap and the labor is about the same regardless of the board size. If you use their regular pricing that takes the area into account, it's still incredibly expensive.

And who do you think manufactures the components for your not-Chinese-made electronics?
