I suggest using the following - depending on the situation:

Yappari dame desu ne = its obvious this wont work out
Zan nen nagara, dame desu ne = unfortunately this wont work out
Dekikanemasu = I would like to make this work, but its not possible
Muri desu ne = impossible!

None of the above should be taken offensively during a negotiation, but 
will get the point across that you have come to a situation that just 
doesn't work.

Good Luck!
