In a season 1 episode they sold off a Naboo Guard jacket.  On a different show, Storage Wars (S03E02) a Revenge of the Jedi jacket was found.

This weeks episode of Hollywood Treasure (S02E05) they attempt to auction a full 3po costume (used for an FAO Schwartz display, then bought by Disney) and they brought in the model maker Don Post: http://www.starwarshelmets.com/don_post_life-sizes.htm  Post was allowed to given access to the LFL archives and used the original forms.

The Yoda rehearsal puppet was owned by the son of the creator Mrs. Froud (Dark Crystal) who was working for Henson.  Freeborn hadn't finished his puppet yet, so this version was used on set while they were doing setup preparations.

*EDIT*

and Jeremy Bulloch shows up (very briefly) in S02E04.  but they put a price tag of 1m on the Boba costume.
