When do ticket sales typically begin for San Diego Comic-Con, and how does that affect pricing?

Ticket sales usually begin in the spring (typically February/March) for members of the Comic-Con Membership program. A general public sale follows shortly after, often in April. Early access for members doesn't necessarily guarantee lower prices, but it significantly increases your chances of *getting* tickets, as they sell out very quickly. Demand drives up secondary market prices if you miss the initial sale.
