Puppetmaster spellbook copying

[Markov Spiked Chain]

I'm playing a Puppetmaster Magus, which adds Bard spells to the Magus list. This is pretty much the only way some Bard only spells (say Timely Inspiration) end up in a Spellbook.

Is there any reason I can't find and pay [(Spell Level^2*10)*50% gp] an NPC Puppetmaster to copy one of these spells from them instead of buying a scroll?

I'm pretty sure that's the intent, yes. There's bound to be someone somewhere.
