David MacKenzie of Clever Mojo Games (the ones doing Alien Frontiers on Kickstarter.com) recommends Panda Games Manufacturing (an American company which works with Chinese manufacturers) and Xinghui (a Chinese company) in this BGDF post. There, is that enough links? :-)
I've gotten a quote from Xinghui which was very reasonable for my project - probably the best overall pricing, although it didn't include shipping, prep, and other expenses which (thanks to Dan Tibbles' excellent talk) I now know to expect from China. However, Tasty Minstrel Games had some production issues which Michael Mindes describes at his blog (and which are confirmed by seo/Seth at BGDF). Not to say Xinghui should be judged by this one experience, but it's a data point, at least.
Nine links - I think that's a record, especially for a two paragraph post. Har.

Mayday games and Minion Games both used Xinghul and both got sub-par quality products. Do not every use Xinghul - don't be tempted by their prices.
