I remember a few years back there being a stir around an item on ebay that claimed to be an ex-military Balkan perpetual motion machine or something very similar.

People sell (and presumably buy) thaose freebie airline wash bags. Just search ebay for "amenity bags".

I've also seen people selling the cardboard box packaging from popular electronics -- mobile phones, iPads, PS3s etc etc. Sometimes they go for £20 each! Only reason I can think of is that it's an insurance scam.

ok, I don't think I've explained this very well. He's not looking or one-offs, or scams, but businesses selling product. Odd, unusual product.

Any more ideas?

Not when the difference between a boxed and unboxed item can be £100.
