October 14, 200817 yr I read this about Illinois laws on ticket reselling. Does this mean selling tickets on ebay is legal in Illinois? Illinois • Allows ticket resale by registered ticket brokers, Internet auction houses, and Internet websites

Their company had a direct printer from the Cubs' ticketing system, accounting for Premium was found in TribCo's Cub books rather than Premium's own books, and other funny things were involved. But the judge decided everything was legit, so Wrigley Field Premium Ticket Service was allowed to continue operations.
