Companies will continue to separate themselves from the chaff based on price alone. Price defines what you're worth to the recipient and much more. It also often dictates quality & what you see here is representative of that.
Could you get a great $5 logo? Certainly. Nike did alright with their $35 one (ignoring inflation & stock later granted to the designer).

Don't forget that Nike's original logo was accepted due to time constraints. The swoosh was combined with an incredibly badly aligned logotype that was altered later before finally arriving at "swoosh only." http://www.logoblog.org/nike_logo.php
Nike has since paid huge amounts of cash to refine and iterate their logo.
But it didn't stop them or kill their brand. No reason you can't launch with a $30 logo and iterate later if/when the need arises.
Just wanted to say that $100 gets you pretty high-end medical diagnosis here in Russia. Unlike in US, doctors and lawers are not highly-paid professionals in here (unlike, say, IT guys).
I'm sure if there was a post saying "how I built an iphone app and backend rest API for $100" we'd all be screaming.
It's interesting that more of these crowdsourcing / task based websites are appearing with very low prices. How long before we see contract writing for $50 and medical diagnosis for $100?
It will be interesting to see what will happen as professional skills are driven down to commodity level.
