And I personally think that undercharging when you desperately need the work is doing yourself (and the industry) a disservice. You should work with the client to come up with a solution that fits their budget, but once you start lowering your rates just so you can get the work in, you're going to find it very hard to increase them up to 'normal' levels again lately - certainly with those clients anyway.
Just my opinion,

prices you give above are meaningless to me, as would the prices I

country/region/city - who can say what's a fair price? What are your
expenses? How desparate are you for work? Is there likely to be
ongoing work from the client? All sorts of factors come into play when
pricing a job.
