Well, it would help if you'd tell me what the verb
"low-buck" means?

It's like "low-ball" - to give the least possible bid that
you think your client will accept, therefore sometimes shooting
oneself in the foot, as the fee doesn't cover the cost of doing
the job.

This is particularly annoying when one finds that the client
would have been happy to pay twice as much for a quality job!

Hope This Helps!
