I've hired many people (hundreds) and I never try to lowball. We look at market data for that position and skill set, then put an offer together that might be above, below or at market average depending on experience, skills, etc.

BTW, only the interviewer that's doing all the HR stuff should ever ask about salary, not the future boss, team mates, etc.
