Is LEGO Trash Compactor Escape a good investment?
Trash Compactor Escape currently trades 43.8% above its $72 retail price, and it is retired, so no new supply is entering the market.

Why is LEGO Trash Compactor Escape so expensive?
Trash Compactor Escape was released in 2010 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.
