Is LEGO City Hero Magnet Set a good investment?

Why is LEGO City Hero Magnet Set so expensive?
City Hero Magnet Set was released in 2009 and has since retired. Once LEGO stops producing a set, the only supply is what is already in circulation, so sealed copies in good condition compete for a shrinking pool of stock. That scarcity, not the parts, is what moves the price.
