Simple answer, it's not an investment because you'll never see a return on the money spent.

There are certainly other reasons why you would do the swap, as others have pointed out, but expecting to recover your costs in this instance is not one of them. Firepower is a great game but it doesn't command high enough prices to absorb the $600 playfield cost.
