Definition from
Wikipedia:
Scarcity value is the economic factor that increases an item's relative price based more upon its relatively low supply. Whereas the prices of newly-produced manufactured products depends mostly on the cost of production (the cost of inputs used to produce them, which in turn reflects the scarcity of the inputs), the prices of many goods -- such as antiques, rare stamps, and those raw materials in high demand -- reflects the scarcity of the products themselves.
Example sentences:

Then there is the simple fact that about ten times more apartments have been built than villas since 2002, so villas have a scarcity value as well as being perceived as the better lifestyle choice. (Axia Fx)
If it's common for a company to miss a profits forecast, then, by definition, it's unusual for a company rarely to miss a forecast. Such a company, therefore, has a scarcity value and its shares should be sought-after. (The Financial Times Limited)

Example sentences:
El origen del problema parece estar más bien en la transformación del dinero en capital, y esta transformación se origina, a su vez, en el hecho que el dinero asuma un "valor de escasez", derivado de la concentración del poder de emisión en manos del Estado y de las entidades financieras del capitalismo.
