I was so pissed at myself for not asking for more. Yep, in my case it was "so what does the position pay?" and the guy replied with "What are you looking to earn?" I replied with "$xxxxx" and he said "Yeah it pays about that." Also he was a loving liar and he got me at $10k a year less than the guy I was replacing. One of the most important things to do in a negotiation is never be the first to throw out a number. The guy in my story clearly knew that and he won the negotiation. You can also answer with vague statements like "I'm on the lower end of the pay range for a position of this type" if you want to be honest but non-specific.
