More of a question?

I saw this in a previous entry about every commission big or small deserving the same respect/attention. However, if you take on some super cheap commissions, as many have noticed there is a $1-2 sketch commission frenzy that has been on and off since last year.
Examples:

If someone says that you did the character wrong and asks you to redo it, should you? Should there be a preliminary sketch even in this instance? Would you offer a refund? Do you think people who take such cheap commissions should just be spat on because they're making it harder for you to get commissions? I just want to hear opinions on this.
