Nope. As with many 3.5 products, Dungeon Tiles have simply suffered a temporary price spike due to panicked fandom and money hungry online retailers trying to cash in on that. Books that I paid $7.00 a piece for earlier this year are suddenly selling for $40+ a pop on Amazon and eBay.
I seriously doubt that these books have become so obscure in such a short period of time. It's more likely that the aforementioned cross-section of fandom simply thinks that these products are or will be ultra-rare now and for the forseeable future, causing an artifical price spike. My advice is to wait this out.
As 4e is released and retailers still have mountains of 3.5 material on their shelves, you should see prices drop down to pennies on the dollar again.
