bj17 it was easy to find out - just look at the RFC website ::) ::) besides they sent every member an email about it so it was that hard  ::)

But the prices were for the 3 categories

GOLD = $360

SILVER = $300

MEZZANINE LEVEL (didn't include anything bar entry to watch) = started at $150, then went to $120, 4 days out were selling them for $60
