As others have opined, none of the changes were really all that big a deal. Some really don't like MIM parts (not an issue for me). P&R / counterbored cylinder models are more collectable, and though undeniably cool, their precence or absence doesn't really impact functionality.
The only change that was truly a benefit, particularly for guns to be used for protection, was the change in the extractor rod from right to left hand thread which makes the chances of the ejector rod unscrewing and locking up the gun much less likely.
In my area, I'd say $550 to $600 for a good condition Model 19 would be about right. P&R models will be around $600.
