It seems they made the big tins, but konami france/spain/italy gave it its own content, i didnt see the kit from any other country, i assume it was only handed out in those three countries?

I have a friend who works in IGN (my press kit source) who has this kit. He told me a rough number since i have been looking for it recently. the tin was also distributed in some events with misc goodies in form of swag kits. I am pretty sure that a significant number more than just a dozen exist of these kits.
As for the Uncharted, both drakes fortune press kit and UC2 press kit came in excess for 4000, perhaps the UC2 kit in bit more numbers. The MGS4 press kit is like similar case, there are way more floating than people know and hence more sought after.
Something similar to the UC2 promo journal as well. While some sold it here on the forum for $ 500-$700, I bought it for $150 off ebay:

I previously got a similar complete journal for $350 off a friend.
Similar journals, albeit even incomplete, without lanyard and promo card sold for $450-500+ on ebay

It just depends how patient you are in waiting for good deals for such items (as it depends on its condition), a ball park price figure for these is difficult to gauge
PS: While as I said a ball park figure for such items is difficult to gauge, I always cap them at certain values. Above which they are not worth it IMHO.
