Helpfulness
Beware of people selling you artifacts, coins, busts, etc at these sites. They may be selling some artifacts that they may have dug out themselves, as smuggling of such relics from these sites is quite rampant. It is also a crime against humanity if someone does this.
Unique Suggestions: If you do want some replicas, visit the gift shop as they keep various statues and jewelry replicas for sale.
Fun Alternatives: Various handicraft shops around Pakistan carry replicas from this period. Buy there and do get a proper reciept as custom official may get suspicious.
