Been trying to get my head round the sale of these tickets.
There are five phases of which the first is now.
First sales phase: 20 February 2009 to 31 March 2009
During this sales phase, the allocation process will involve a random selection draw for all over-subscribed Matches or Team Specific Tickets. The first sales phase random selection draw will take place on 15th April 2009. Please note: it makes no difference whether you apply early, on 20 February 2009, or late, on 31 March 2009. Each correctly submitted application will have the same opportunity of being successful in the draw.
Second sales phase: 4 May 2009 to 16 November 2009
Ticket applications submitted during this stage will be processed, subject to availability, on a first come first served basis - in the order of receipt.
04-05 December 2009 Final Draw for the 2010 FIFA World Cup South Africa
Actual draw when we know who is playing where.
Third sales phase: 5 December 2009 to 22 January 2010
The procedure corresponds to that of phase one: all correctly submitted applications received during this stage will be considered for allocation. If the number of applications for Match or Team Specific tickets exceeds the number of tickets available, tickets will be allocated by a random selection draw taking place on 1 February 2010. Please note: it makes no difference whether you apply early, on 5 December 2009, or late, on 22 January 2010. Each correctly submitted application will have the same opportunity of being successful in the draw.
Fourth sales phase: 9 February 2010 to 7 April 2010
Ticket applications submitted during this stage will be processed, subject to availability, on a first come first served basis - in the order of receipt.
Final / Last Minute sales phase: 15 April 2010 to 11 July 2010
Ticket applications will be processed on a first come first served basis, however Ticket transactions will be conducted immediately at the point of sale.

Incidentally the lowest price is $80(£55, E60 at present) for corner seats otherwise they just keep rising. Think it is cheaper for South Africans. They get seats behind the goals I think.
Not sure it is worthwhile to try to get a ticket now or wait for the third phase. I wouldn't mind going to see any match. Always regret not going to France 98 and seeing one of those matches that were half empty (One of my teachers went on his day off and watched Paraguay-Bulgaria).
