My own take mirrors stanthemans, especially how blued and nickle model 10s and even 13s are commanding more money than their stainless brothers. I can still find used 64s for about $300 at the local gun shows, and the recent batch of 64 snubs are between $300 and $350 depending on condition.
I myself just got a 10-10 for $350 and it had been reblued yet was otherwise perfect. And my old 10-7 set me back $200 it was a wreck, but I revived it. I intend to add a 64 to the collection soon too. Dale
