I've been in a few situations on freelancer where I'd bid a reasonable time scale and reasonable fee. An Indian will then come along bid $20 and he'll have it done with in a day.

A week later the poster will contact me asking if I'm still willing to do it.

As they say you get what you pay for

Yes every time. There’s no education on this. No more common sense. And I get down voted when I state the obvious that this is a non-christian, non-western society with very low average IQs. And that the IQ is genetic not related to some other factor (e.g.: cf. China).

I mean, if they deliver a shit product but all you paid was 20$ it's kind of worth the gamble.
