Cataloguing the glitches in Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion is getting to be like counting Tribbles. This trick allows you duplicate hundreds of items easily:
All you have to do to duplicate an item hundreds of times is to draw your bow and pull the trigger button, but before you release the trigger button, hit B to enter your items list, change the types of arrows you are using, and then select the item you want to duplicate and drop it. exit out of your item list and let the trigger button go to shoot the arrow, and your items fall out of the sky.
Video proof here. Each time you duplicate an item, it costs you 200 MS points. Just kidding.

I haven't tried this glitch, but I'm told the number of duped items is dependant on how many arrows you switch to. More arrows = more duped items.

SickNic you are right. The more arrows you have of 1 type versus the second type, the more items you get.
A warning though. Sometimes doing this will slow down the 360 to a crawl, and having more items may exacerbate this problem.
And for all those who condemn cheats, don't use them!
I hated oblivion before the cheats, and now I am actually enjoying it. It's the difference between not having to spend x hours to do something that I don't have anyhow.
:p

This video looks like what is actually happening, is that it replicates the item as many times as you have arrows in the quiver you switch to.
The video shows him dropping 2 diamonds, after switching to a quiver of 232 arrows, and then it showers double diamonds, you can see has he moves his hand over, each diamond is in fact 2 diamonds.
If it's reproducible this is a big bug. But who doesn't want to be in a rain storm of diamonds? With shelter so you're not cut to ribbons.

Boo-erns, I took too long to get to reading about this, yeah, like the other 3 guys said, it's all about the arrows.

The best glitch I found was jumping on top of the pillars in the arena. Then I just summon skeletons and hit them in the face with fireballs while they hack away harmlessly at the pillar. Not always succesful against archers and mages, but still fun. This was especially useful against the 3 argonians match, those 3 idiots just sat there hacking away while a skeleton stabbed them in the back.
Priceless...

I used this to turn Smash & Bash into a hideous den of death -- I duped about 400 skulls and about 100 ribcages on the floor. Actually I did it at the top of the stairs, so I could watch everything bounce down the stairs. Of course Urkel og Urkel or whatever goes and watches me do it from the bottem of the stairs, and then when I go over to the counter he's just standing there in the gristly pile of bones looking at me like nothings' going on.
Of course I wouldn't use it to dupe something useful or 'cheat'. Unlike some people I enjoy playing the game, and I am not looking for any shortcuts to get to the end faster.
