We stagger the pricing so people with less funds have a chance to purchase them early, and so those who came before can come again. As the conference has sold out and gained in popularity, it means people who bought early tickets could later resell them for more money. That is no longer possible. You can still cancel tickets, however, based on our cancellation policy.</SPAN></P> <DIV STYLE="text-align: center;"><BR><SPAN STYLE="font-size: 24px;"><SPAN STYLE="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">Questions and Answers</SPAN></SPAN></DIV> <P><BR STYLE="font-size: 15px; font-family: Arial; color: #000000; background-color: transparent; font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;"> <SPAN STYLE="font-size: 15px; font-family: Arial; color: #000000; background-color: transparent; font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">Can I purchase a ticket for only one or two days? </SPAN><BR> <SPAN STYLE="font-size: 15px; font-family: Arial; color: #000000; background-color: transparent; font-weight: normal; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">No, not at this point.
