World Cup pre-sales

I plunked the deposit down with FIFA a couple of months ago to get access to the pre-sale packages. They're obviously pretty pricey. My goal is really just to see USA at least once, but that's only available if you get a minimum 4-game package (i.e. 2 game packages, the lowest rung, explicitly exclude the USA match).

Some questions:

Does anyone know in the past (or this time) if they are allowing re-sales?

What kind of demand do you think there will be? i.e. Is this likely to be a decent investment either way?

What % of the tickets do you think will eventually be sold to the general public - and in which format? (lottery, etc.)

Here's what they sent:

Series Offerings

Venue Series: all matches at a host stadium

Four Match Series: 4 matches ( 2 group stage + any other 2 group stage or round of 32 matches)

I don't see how the hospitality space is worth all that much, so looking at the lowest package, it's basically $1637.50 per match to guarantee your seat this far out. I assume all the ultimate gen pop sales will be sub-$200/match...but you have vastly lower odds of actually getting one.

Thoughts?
