Videos
Depending where you live in the world depends on what Buffy videos/DVD's you can get your hands on, and at the moment it seems surprisingly the UK which is leading the Buffy/Angel video and DVD revolution. At the moment in the UK you can buy all five full seasons of Buffy and both full seasons of Angel on video. On DVD you can currently buy Buffy seasons one and two. The 1993 movie is also aviable everywhere. The RRP for Buffy and Angel videos is around £29.99. The DVD's are a little more expensive at around £40 for season one and around £70 for season two. In other parts of the world videos are becoming more popular and a selection of Buffy episodes can be bought in box sets and individual videos.

CD's
The offical Buffy CD soundtrack is still on sale at all good records stores around the world, and there is some gossip that a new Buffy CD will be coming out shortly along with an Angel soundtrack. However the soundtrack does not have every track from the show (which includes cool bands like Third Eye Blind and Blink 182) and there albums are also on sale in all good record stores (for a list of songs played in seasons 1-4 check out the music section.

Autographs
Autographs are one of the most sought after things by Buffy collectors. Not only do they make a nice collectiable but they can also if kept nicely make a good deal of money on the second hand market. The first thing I would like to warn Buffy and Angel fans about when considering buying an autograph is please please please buy it from a safe company. There are a lot of cowboys out there and they could sign 100 pictures Sarah Michelle Gellar themselves and make a small profit. Check local comic book and Sci Fi stores in your area and talk to them about their policies on autographs or they own personal views on where to go to buy decent autographs. Anybody who has been in Buffy or Angel is collectable, but as always the most sought after are the lead players. Sarah Michelle Gellar (Buffy) goes for around £125, David Boreanaz (Angel) is worth £50-80, Alyson Hannigan, Amber Benson, Emma Caulfield and Nick Brendon (Willow, Tara, Anya and Xander) are £80, while Seth Green, James Masters and Charisma Carpenter (Oz, Spike and Cordelia) are going for around £90. These are figures I recently aquired and they can change either going up and down, but this is due to the autograph market.
