Well.... I agree. To a point. If you're that salesman and your income relied upon "maximizing" a final price, don't you think you'd try and get a higher price?
Don't get me wrong... bartering (or dickering) about price should be encouraged. But to cut-off a guy without "some" second or even third chances, would be like ... (?)
I guess it's a two-way street.... and one shouldn't be too quick to throw off a salesman. Even if that person is obviously going too high. Give them another chance or two.... they'll probably move.
