Wanted: updated estimates on some items.

Magic Alpha/Beta poster set--3 posters with every version of card from Alpha and Beta. This promo was for a fraudulant charity and many were destroyed by WOTC when they found out.
Ice age book Cover, smaller then a typical poster this has blank text box ice age cards. As well as the cool Jesters Cap. This says "Ice Age has arrived!" and "Ice Age TM can be played as a standalone trading card game or as an expansion set for Magic The Gathering'. This fits most large sized school book texts, however these are rarely found uncreased. Only a small fold in the middle exists from storing this in a folder.
Can I please have a few estimates on updated value? On prior estimates I was told the Beta poster set was 100-125 range and the iceage 15-20. The iceage bookcover may be for sale, however I'm keeping the Beta print posters.

A set of the charity posters, complete with the color informational book, recently sold on eBay for about $150.
The book cover will be worth as much as you can convince someone to pay for it! Your guestimate is as good as any.

I cannot help a whole lot, but what I can say, is that I bought the 3 poster set about 6 months ago, mint condition, in tubes, but no booklet for $29.99. I also won an Ebay auction over a year ago for 4 of those Ice Age book covers for approx $15 and never received them.

if you could link to ebay auction I'm interested in what the color booklet looks like. The person on mtgnews I bought the poster set from didn't have it (when I later inquired). At the time I bought the beta poster I was very confused on its value and thought my bid of ~$40 in singles was ripping myself off. I loved the poster at a local shop and had been searching off and on for one for over 6 years--and it was impossible to find.

Yeah, I've heard about a color one too, but every booklet I've seen is Black and White (mine is).
I would love to see it too.

It isn't the entire book that is in color. Its just the artwork on the outside cover that is in color. Otherwise the book is identical to the black & white version.

There's a picture and some background information about the sets here - http://wiki.mtgarchive.net/Charity_Fellowship_posters.
edit: oops, too late. I should read the whole thread before replying

not impossible to find. I got one for 50 dollars on ebay (in my golden days). Then I sold it to a forum member for 50 dollars and lost money on shipping. C'est la vie, he needed it for his dragon whelp collection.
