No one does good work for cheap unless they:
a) need portfolio (which doesn't last long)
b) don't know their own value (which typically doesn't last long)
c) are floating around on a yacht designing for "the hell of it".Let them go to their budget crappy designer and do the work. Odds are someone at their company will have enough design sense to fire them because they "wasted company money on crap," in which case you will work for another project manager. If they love the crappy work then you don't want to work for them anyways because they obviously are going to be a pain to design for.
Good business is good design. If you are delivering a good product on a good timeline you deserve to get paid, otherwise they are just a crappy client and you should move on and find someone that isn't going to screw you.
