Default UNION Voices with Voices.com and V123

OK Just wondering about Union work with Voices and V123. I'm a member of ACTRA in Canada which is tied to AFTRA and SAG. My union tells me that if I voice anything it has to be under the price guidelines of any of those unions. That's fair to me.
Voices tells me that if a non-union client posts...with budget of 100-250 the union person can do the spot but should quote the union scale for the job and explain that you are union, that why the high quote. If the client likes your voice he won't mind paying more.
Not only are there 200 people applying for the job quoting within budget but there are a bunch of folks applying way over budget. Voices went on to tell me that More clients book a voice based on the demo, rather that the price quote. Which I find really hard to believe. When you want to buy something you know how much you want to spend. You have a budget.
What do you think, does joining the union help when it comes to Voices and V123.
And I know AFTRA and SAG are different from ACTRA and have different rules.
Thanks and CHEERS
