By Dean Murray

Christmas has come early as Buddy’s costume from the holiday hit "Elf" goes up for auction.

The outfit worn by Will Ferrell in the beloved 2003 holiday film is expected to achieve between $132,000 and $264,000.

Propstore says the costume is screen-matched to the famous elevator scene in which Buddy pushes every button to see them light up.

Other highlights include Alan Rickman’s annotated shooting scripts from "Die Hard" (1988) and Love Actually (2003), which reveal his creative process and are valued from #3,000 to $6,000.
