The underlying issue is that those tickets have a "no resale" provision that doesn't apply when the original seller acts as a broker.

Do other brokers, when they go and work around that limitation break the sales contact? Maybe. The legal system would churn an answer in a few years.

Do AXS et al with their "only we are allowed to engage in a secondary policy" are abusing their monopoly on original sales? The legal system would churn an answer about the legality of this in few years, but I think it's obvious they at least break rules in the spirit.
