Do not speak first when the figures start to come up, thee who speaks first ALWAYS looses. Let them offer and go from there. If you say something first and it is less than they were expecting to give you it is your loss and you will never know what their intent was.
If they speak first and it is low you can begin to pad your worth with everything you do. If it is higher than expected then still try to push it a tad higher since most people make offers expecting a counter-offer.
Bah - you don't know anythng about negotiations
LOL! - What Scott said!
