I can throw together a low quality item and call it a collectible to charge
more money, too, but it doesn't make it one, fortunately.  IMHO (which
which probably differs with most) is that this isn't even close.

The scripts and bibles are exactly what we said they were: they are exact
doubles for the material we provided writers on the show.  That is the whole
PURPOSE of them, to look like, and be, what we used on the show, not a
slickback published version.  

Every series that sells scripts sells exactly the same thing, whether it's
Buffy or XFiles or anybody else.
