I know it's a hard way to look at things, but it avoids these problems. You have to work at a rate you are comfortable with. If you are doing a better job than most other designers and don't have the time to take these small jobs, maybe find a young'un to outsource that work too for a small % of the work they negotiate. That way you can pass these cheap customers off to someone and still make a few bucks, and not have to do every piece of work that lands on your doorstep.
