Marlin 336's and Winchester M94's in 30-30 are selling for top dollar around here (Arizona) due to the high Mexican population. (Unoficially, the 30-30 is the 30-06 of Mexico.) I had two beater M94s that I paid $100 for one and $125 for the other. Sold them both for $400. M94s go high now that Winchester doesn't make them any more. I still have a couple of M64s and one two 94s, one a family heirloom and the other bought in 1981 new. I have one Marlin 30-30 as well that I got into cheap because the butt stock was badly cracked. I fixed it and it is a good shooter.
All I can suggest is hit the gun shows, pawn shops or buy new. Marlin does make a lowered priced model, the Glenfield I think it's called. Might be hard to find though as Remington bought Marlin out.
