Such services do exist. It's possible send PCB files to a board fabricator and
have 1 or 2 made. (First some one has to make or give you the files of course.)
Once you receive your board it could then be sent to another company that would
assemble it. However the cost for such small quantities would be ridiculously
high.

Group options are another possibility if you find enough people to participate.

Read this Amiga thread for one good example....
