MikeH Well-Known Member Licensed User Longtime User Dec 30, 2017 #2 I can be good OR cheap, but sadly not both, sorry
LucaMs Expert Licensed User Longtime User Dec 30, 2017 #5 I am not a so good developer but cheap; I want only 1€ per line (not per added lines, for each line of a project).

In any service we provide you can choose 2 out of those 3, so; If you want a Good and Fast service, it won't be Cheap, If you want Good and Cheap, it won't be Fast, If you want Cheap and Fast, it won't be Good."

S sorex Expert Licensed User Longtime User Dec 31, 2017 #7 I don't know where @Devv is from but those $400 might be a month wage for some of us. besides that for an rss feed reader it uses way too much libraries and most of them don't exist for IOS either so that would mean a lot of custom code writing too.

Star-Dust Expert Licensed User Longtime User Jan 2, 2018 #9 I have already read a similar conversation on: HERE It seems to me that more than 500 $ no one has ever offered, perhaps in private agreements, but never in a post. As already mentioned in other threads, for some they are few for an unemployed developer is better than nothing. Although I approve of the reasoning of Cableguy's carbody repairs. Offering 200-400 $ the result will be compared to the price. But maybe instead of always doing the same conversation every year (we are already in 2018) I would say only I'm not interested

wonder Expert Licensed User Longtime User Jan 2, 2018 #10 In my opinion, the problem is the usage of the words 'cheap programmer', not the offered value. If the opening post looked like this: I'm looking for someone to complete and enhance an existing project of mine. (...) Depending on the quality of your work, I might consider hiring you to convert the app to IOS (B4I). I'm paying 200$ to 400$ for this offer. Click to expand... I don't think anyone would have had any problems with it, right?

Good attempt but insufficient If a project consisting of 2500 lines is 90% complete and has only a few bugs and then you offer a maximum of $ 400, does this mean that it would take maximum of 4 hours of work on it? If so, why do not you complete it yourself, since you know your code?

As @sorex said, the money offered can be a month's wage for someone and I wouldn't be surprised if @Devv has already received an offer as per the request. I agree, if this is the case, @Devv should write that the offer is closed but perhaps due to the rather polemical comments he might have refrained from doing so....

LucaMs Expert Licensed User Longtime User Jan 2, 2018 #15 Furthermore, I suspect that we are all responding in this way because we know that today the programmer's work is underestimated and, above all, paid little. I think that we are, unconsciously, venting our indignation for this, not against @Devv .

To be honest, i've taken projects where I know for a fact that what they are offering is all they can afford, but only when i know the job will take minimum effort and i won't end up spending more than 30 minutes even an hour.

ilan Expert Licensed User Longtime User Jan 2, 2018 #20 according to the job offer. can you post a link to the app so i can see how complex it is? i may be interested Devv said: PM me your experiences in android or B4A and what libraries you had used before Click to expand... i did few apps in b4a and also in b4i so maybe i have the needed skills for that job. so a demo app to see what your app does may be a good start to see if it can be done in b4i and if the price is worth. thanks, ilan
