3D printing services

Can anyone recommend an online 3D printing service. Looking to get a model printed around 4-6 inches but have no idea how much this costs or where to start. I would like something that is pretty high quality too.

I have a model in mind from thingiverse so that's covered.

Thanks guys, looks like what I want to print might be a little too intricate and those websites end up charging and arm and a leg.

Looks like a resin printer job.
There are no makes of it, which is never a great sign. If it even could be printed with filament type printer it would need to be printed in parts and glued.

Shapeways was showing 10 parts

Just a wee update, I've given 3DHubs a go (in case this helps anyone else).

Shapeways wanted around £50 for the one model and it would have been a matte textured plastic of an unknown resolution.

3Dhubs have quoted £20 for the same model SLA resin printed with 50 micron resolution. There is also a code for $10 off so I ended up ordering two models. I'll update the thread when I know how they have turned out.
