EBay has a FAQ regarding this stuff. Basically, some states regulate the resale of tickets from venues within their state (EBay has a list of these states and their respective laws/limits).
However, this whole "ticket broker" deal is soooo shady....
How this dude gets all these tickets is beyond me, especially considering he's (supposedly) in Canada. Years ago, I was at a Tower Records in the Valley waiting for Stevie tix to go on sale. The guy in front was buying dozens of tickets for a special John Fogerty show at the House of Blues and it was SO obviously the cashier was in on it and/or getting a kick-back.
I think all this ticket broker crap should be completely banned and regulated in some form. It's just criminal.
