"Invaluable" means it's so valuable you couldn't even say how valuable it is.
Similar to "priceless", actually.

These words are unusual.
They both mean the same.
Normally the prefix in— means the opposite. Such as flexible and inflexible.
There is another example: flammable and inflammable also mean the same.
