Second Hand Dealer License? : Bike Coop : Illinois
I am part owner of a bicycle coop in Illinois and we are just getting acquainted with what we are supposed to be doing. Does anyone know if we are required to have a second hand dealer license? According to the municipal code, it appears that non-profits are exempt. Anyone have any experience with this?
Here is the wording…
Sales conducted by governmental, civic, patriotic, fraternal, educational, religious or benevolent organizations which have been in active and continuous existence for at least one year prior to the holding of the sale, or which are incorporated as a not-for-profit corporation by the state.

I know in madison we have a similar ordnance. The big piece is if your buying bikes, when buying bikes is when you have to report second hand dealer(like a pawn shop) .
