It's all about the FOMO (Fear of Missing Out) that drives purchases like this for me. Nobody wants to be the only person who doesn't have this, especially if they also had the chance to get it for a reasonable price when it was new.
Ordered mine and I don't read German nor have any need for the Carc2.0 tile. So I just spent how much for a single tile...?

I grabbed Crop Circles I, Plague, Tunnels, and CS&C soon after they came out just out of a fear that they wouldn't be available in the future. For all of those I was proven correct. Bloody Cathars, meanwhile, cost me around $7/tile after shipping. I suppose this tile is comparable, but at least I get another (worthless to me) tile and a magazine I can't read.

Buying tiles early can work the other way as well. I bought the Müller edition when it came out basically just to get 6 tiles for The Besiegers and it was quite a pricey eBay purchase. Then later that expansion came up for normal prices on Cundco!

Still, you got a cool tin box and some spare tiles out of it so it wasn't all bad.
