I did a price comparison vs Shapeways of the direct print which was 20 units.
Total cost was $158 for Voodoo and Total cost was $332 for Shapeways.
Is it true that you guys are cheaper and any reason why?

We're cheaper than other 3D printing services because we took a different approach and use lower-end commoditized 3D printers, rather than commercial or industrial machines. The machines we use are cheaper, and use cheaper (open) materials, and require cheaper maintenance and repairs. We're also optimized for volume and cost-reduction as a company, where as Shapeways is more optimized for variety and low-volume orders.
