I had a client (he's a retard on this board) who wanted a database of members migrated to a new application. I told him $1/member to write the script that would import his paid members and he threw a coniption fit.
OK, you have 1000 members paying $10/mo - now I charge you $1 per member ONE TIME to migrate them into your new database and you cry foul? HAHAHAHA!

*Shrug* Let that client hire the lowest bidder. Watch the lowest bidder's response when anomolies are found in the migrated data and the lowest bidder blames... um... sunspots. *YOU* can then step in and do your job, and charge your fees to pick up the pieces. Programmers who deserve to get paid reasonable wages get the shit done, period.
