I second Advanced Assembly if you're located in the US.
Provisos: if you're supplying parts you need to have *all* the parts, 
in the correct footprints, and it helps if you label the parts.
They'll load from bags (individually) or from reels and are quite 
flexible: they'd be glad to supply all the passives from their reels 
and you just send the actives, or they'd be glad to source everything.
Once they start, they're usually done within a couple days at the 
most.  Sometimes getting to that starting point is difficult because of 
remotely synchronizing parts lists.

But no assembly place I've dealt with (and there have been several) 
has been anything like cheap.
