    Some ideas:

    - you will be talking to endless committees and provide a tender
    outlining the whole site inclduing a project plan, hence you have no
    idea what the actual marketing costs will be when you start.
    - you will have no clear goal and no clear guideline what is going to
    be a completed product, hence you have no idea what the project will
    actually cost.
    - if you do it for less than 100K, the person that is responsible for
    that kind of budget will not be able to approve it, because that
    person would not be in charge of such a wide scale project. Instead if
    you do it for 101k, you may be talking to a person that will be able
    to approve it
    - how can it be any good, if its that cheap?


    Note: Some of the points contain sarcasm.
