LOL, that's ridiculous.
I often have friends approach me about their relative or whoever that needs a website designed for their business and they can't believe when I quote them my rate(which is well less than most firms). People want websites for nothing. I guess they expect some ridiculous deal when they are talking to a freelancer instead of a firm. I don't know. I've been burned before though doing work for much cheaper than I should have and ended up working tons of hours for nothing. Never again though, take it or leave it is my motto. The only exception is if it looks like you can get a lot of work from the client, then you could come off your rate a little. But, not all the time and now that I think about it, probably not the best idea for your first project with them. Once, I had someone get a quote from me, think it was too much, had some other wanker design a piece of shit site for them, and than ended up going with me anyways. idiots.
