What kind of project?

From the programmers point of view: I often have people hit me up for little shit and I give them a quote and they are like, WTF? I paid less for the software I want you to hack up! But they don't understand the programmer that made the software was spreading his $25,000 fee over the thousands of purchases of his software.

When I find somebody that wants a large quality project I quote them $x,xxx to $xx,xxx and they flip out. They tell me how they could big it on elance and get somebody for $100 or $200 bux. Cool... But like you originally posted you never really know who that guy is. Often you pay him to install shit on your system or rip your project so he can do it on his own servers.

So the real question for the programmers here on GFY is if you want a seasoned pro are you ready to pay $100 to $200 an hour? Or are you thinking that much for the entire project?
