you can still find tickets if you where to look (sometimes ticketmaster releases tickets later on, extra tix at the box office the day of) for face value. otherwise, you can pay extra on craigslist, stubhub, or legal scalpers (ticket brokers).
I believe ebay states that you cannot reside in the state and sell the ticket for more than face value.
So if you live in Illinois, you cannot sell the tickets for more than face value, if the venue is in IL. But if you are out of state you can sell them for more than face value. I forget the exact requirements, but remember there being difference between where you live and where the venue is and where the buyer lives....
I tried selling tickets once and gave up.
+1 for Craigslist is your friend.
