Does anyone have insight they're willing to share about why this issue is SO valuable? I know it's the first appearance of the Symbiote, but still.

That's why. Origin of the symbiote.

just to tweak the answer more, it's a 'triple threat'--origin of the black costume/symbiote, 1st IN CONTINUITY app of the black costume (story takes place before ASM 252 but 252 was published first), and of course the symbiote becomes Venom and then part of it creates Carnage. The Venom part is what drove it to new heights after the new black costume frenzy died down some, then the Venom movies boosted it way more.

For those of us with the history, it's pretty hard to fathom, isn't it? "Secret Wars" was really a pretty terrible storyline.
Now, we may or may not watch mediocre movies be made and drive the demand up even higher.
I watched New Mutants last month... sort of on par with the Venom movie, but it's not having a similar effect on early New Mutants books, I don't think.
