There are some cheap NiMH stickpacks available through eBay from China and Hong Kong, which claim they are 3000mah on the label. However, open up the pack and the cells are printed with 1700mah NiCD on them.

I'd always be wary of imported LiPo packs having some similar issue - as overloading a cell (like running it in a car you thought was fine, but puts it right on the limits) makes it pretty likely to fail.
