Your gun is very nice. I love the snub nosed guns with the half round front sight.
When I looked at your pictures the first time, I thought maybe the gun was almost new. But, when I blew the pictures up and looked closer, in the second picture, there appears to be some freckling on the cylinder at one of the flutes and some cylinder edge wear. That is ashame, since it doesn't even seem to have a turn line. If I am seeing correctly, I think the prices quoted are fair.
Without any freckling, having a S prefix serial number, and the correct box, it probably would bring more at auction. JMHO. So, now that you have some answers to your value question, how did you do at the local shop? Here is a picture of the end of my box from 1949 of my gun like yours except in nickel finish:
