It means the value's been inflated artificially, in order to make your $10 a better perceived investment.
Or, in very rare instances, it means you've found a bargain-price-on something you may or may not wish to purchase.

That is a marketing language gimmick. For example, a marketer would say that suggested retail price of a particular item is $40, but you can buy it for this limited time offer of $10, which is a $30 value. Basically it is a sales tactic, moving the numbers around to entice the potential buyer.

The MSRP is the what the manufacturers suggested retail price and this is what retails, ads, and etc. display, but most retails will price it below the MSRP to entice you to buy it. There isn't really a bargain unless you find the same product at a higher price else where in which case it is a bargain.
So the MSRP is $30.00
And the Retailer is selling it for $10.00
You saved $20.00
Value equals what the MSRP is.

Means they originally planed to sell it for $30 but have decided to get rid of it and are asking $10 .

One needs $30 to produce the item but sells it at $10. Sometimes it's true, sometimes not, just a sales pitch ;-)
