Princess Dye Posted October 14, 2008 Share Posted October 14, 2008 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 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Cubs were accused of running an in-house scalping company that sold "first-release" tickets rather than resale tickets. 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.
