My reply is "yes, $220 is better for ME. You don't like my first price so I'll give you a price which is much better for me. You want to negotiate, we just keep going up. Tell me when to stop".
Just like so many before them, they happily shelled out the $200.
But there have been occasions where if they won't shut up and want to continue to haggle, I just tell them its no longer for sale and they should leave. They never leave and always pay the price I first asked. Never fails.
