Those guns and the S2 and S3 Berettas are the guns that over the last two years are really going up. As has the 28 gauge Ruger Red Label.

I thought there were an amazing number of great buys on 8 gauges. I have a single and a double and I think a lot of people are overlooking the singles as an entry level. About the only legal field use in the US is for turkey and deer in some states and a single is fine for those uses.
