Is LEGO Space Shuttle Discovery-STS-31 a good investment?
Space Shuttle Discovery-STS-31 currently trades 216.1% above its $87 retail price, and it is retired, so no new supply is entering the market.

Why is LEGO Space Shuttle Discovery-STS-31 so expensive?
Space Shuttle Discovery-STS-31 was released in 2003 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.
