Definitely, I'd say that pricing too low is often a damaging factor! I agree with the comments above mine; they give very good reasons why this would be so.
I just wanted to add in my own personal observations about this sort of thing. I'm on an online community for artists, and we very frequently have discussions where someone will complain that they don't receive any commissions no matter how low their prices are. That type of remark ALWAYS triggers a lengthy discussion, with multiple other artists popping in and replying, "No one ever noticed my stuff when I was underpricing myself. But when I raised my rates to a more fair [to the artist] price, I started getting much more work!"
