Can anybody recommend a good 3D printing service, where you send a design file and money and they post you your printed thing back?

I quite fancy making myself a little Retropie handheld console, but even the designs that use ready-made Game Boy shells seem to rely on 3D printed structures that go inside (unless they're one-offs that cram everything in the case and then squirt a pint of hot-melt glue in).

3dhubs.com is where I got mine done.

Had my first nose at 3D Printing stuff. I was after a replacement battery compartment cover for a Neo Geo Pocket Color, and rather than trying to find an original one, I wondered if it was possible to get them printed, and sure enough, someone had created a design for one. Picked about the cheapest option on there (wasn't fussy about the colour and materials used) and for $8.12 including shipping, I'm all sorted -

Did it come pre-scuffed?

Edit: I'm looking at the wrong bit, aren't I?

You can see why I wasn't too fussy about the new part - the rest of the console is a bit battered. :)
