Good, reputable PSD to CSS/HTML/XHTML service?

I'm looking for an online PSD to CSS/HTML/XHTML conversion service. I've googled around, but I want to see if anybody could recommend a good service based on personal experience.

Also how much did it cost and what was the turnaround time?

I asked this question previously and wasn't really comfortable with what I read there. I usually work with MeFi user Memo but he was all booked up on that occasion (which is why I asked about online services) and I ended up working with Scabrous instead. Both deliver excellent, compliant code and pixel perfect CSS cross-browser renderings, at very reasonable costs.

I have heard good things about, but not personally used, XhtmlSlicers. They offer a variety of time windows and let you preview the results and ask for corrections before making the full payment. The next time I need a job like this job done I plan on using them.

Somewhat off-topic, but I would really like some journalist/blogger to write an article comparing a couple of these services. Particularly if the design they were sent had some tricky gotchas, browser issues, etc.

I'm using XTML4U right now for all my projects. They're very clear and friendly; Sydney-based (so emails are in proper english); fixes/clarifications are free, and small extra fees for javascript, sIFR, etc. We tried w3-markup.com, and they were a bit less communicative.

I'm looking at XTML4U's portfolio right now. They've taken an interesting approach to cross-browser compatibility:

<a href="concept.html"><b>CONCEPT</b>
<!--[if IE 7]><!--></a><!--<![endif]-->
<!--[if lte IE 6]><table><tr><td><![endif]-->
<!--[if lte IE 6]></td></tr></table></a><![endif]-->

I don't know what that's doing and I don't want to know.
