I can attest that between You Suck at Craigslist and WTF Sparkyville, these are not even in the top 5 things of weirdness. These were never worn because the intended recipients came down with a bad case of militaria. I’ve known people who were told to grow a pair, but never anyone who claimed they sold a pair. Is there even a market for that? Genitalia, gently used? New Old Stock is now my favorite description of anything.
Welcome To Fabulous Sparkyville 
Sigh, so much to [corey] here.
Mind, I am a collector of militaria (that being uniforms & ephemera relating to military service; I specifically collect USN 1939 to present).
So, it’s a worldwide niche market, with rather a lot of commerce. Which has changed over the years from musty surplus stores & travelling vendors to web based trading (eBay has a huge section for this).
NOS has a long history in collector circles. Huge on the swap meet (cars) circuit. Basically, it’s unsold store inventory in original packaging. Which has strong cachet if one were, say, restoring a ’62 Dodge Dart, a NOS Voltage Regulator is much better than, say, a junk yard, ‘used’ example (or an ‘equivalent’ listing which is only “close” to OEM spec.
Sone of the militarua community are also reenactors. Some of whom can be very committed to being period correct. To include underthings. NOS is clearly a bemefit in that case. They also want such items for putting into field packs, or for inventory display–the grand old military “junk on a bunk” laying out of all one’s government issue property.
That price is some high, 1945 drawers are only getting $10-$15 on eBay.

Daryl, clean this stuff up!
But, hunny, it’s NOS.
I don’t care, sell it.
[Looks at 20 boxes of surplus, pulls out 4 pair at random.]
Ok, hunny, going on CL right now!

New old stock reminds me of a sign outside of an antique store.
