I have also heard that in the South (Hong Kong – Macau) you can begin by offering 10% of the initial price, with an ending price of 10-30% of the original asking price.

The Terracotta Army or Terracotta Warriors and Horses is a collection of 8,099 Chinese terra cotta figures of warriors, horses, acrobats and other figures located near the Mausoleum of the First Qin Emperor.. The figures vary in height, according to their role, the tallest being the Generals. The heights range is 184–197cm (6ft–6ft 5in). The figures were discovered in 1974 near Xi’an, Shaanxi province, China by several local farmers.
