I'm afraid they won't be easy to find; a fellow member of a French message
board tried to get them on e-bay a few years ago.
Here's what I found on Mile-High Comics:

68117&snumber=1
I don't know how the estimate is done; possibly using the Comic Book Price
Guide.
Not about those stories, but my search turned up this interesting news item
(which everybody in the whole world certainly already knew about):

A Merry Christmas 60 Years from Shacktown

Merry Christmas to all of you keeping quality stories from Duckburg alive!
Re-re-re-reading A Christmas for Shacktown makes me believe even more that the genius of Carl Barks remains under-appreciated. This 32-page epic is a masterpiece of story-telling: funny in slapsticky, ironic, and satiric fashion, mysterious, emotionally compelling, and subtly focused on its serious theme, with a large cast of "true-to-life" characters.
60 years later it remains a Mount Everest for aspiring authors in any genre to climb and match.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

Happy Holidays everyone!
May the joy and fun of our common interest in Disney comics help to spread at
least a little bit of peace and understanding that seems always to be in short
supply on this otherwise amazing little planet that we are graced to call home.
Best wishes to you all, your family and friends,
