It never strike my mind about the girl losing face if she lowers her price during negotiation. Now come to think of it, its a very valid point.
In oppose to asking how much they want, I think next time I will just say "I give you THBXXXX", then moving up to target price. At target price will let her decide if she wanted to accept my final offer. If she rejects, I think I move on for others.
