Lawmakers want NC scalping exemption permanent

»  Comments | Post a Comment

The Legislature wants to make permanent an experiment that allowed online vendors to sell tickets above the profit limit set in North Carolina's no-scalping law.

The Senate agreed unanimously Thursday with a House bill that extended the law first that expired Tuesday. The bill headed to Gov. Beverly Perdue's desk would eliminate the sunset.

The law has provided an exemption to the ban on the resale of tickets for a price that's more than $3 above their face value.

The law has required online vendors to provide some consumer protections, including guarantees that the tickets are legitimate and that they'll be received on time.

Pro sports teams and venues supported the change last year.
