Depending on what the person does and how much they presently earn, why waste your time if they are looking for something you won't be willing to pay and they are comfortable with (and most likely won't move without it)? I personally have always asked around to find out before so I don't waste my time with interviews and 'growing attached' to the probability of the new position. Although, I must admit, the jobs I've settled for a lower pay have always been the ones that my pay moved up and surpassed the previous job quicker, go figure.
