Modifies current law on ticket sales and resales.
This bill would require ticket resellers (those charging more than face value plus taxes) to register with New Jersey's Division of Consumer Affairs, maintain a physical office, and disclose key details like seat locations, cancellation policies, and service charges to buyers. It mandates refunds if brokers fail to deliver tickets or honor guarantees, sets specific rules for handling deposits on "try and get" orders, and prohibits "diggers" who intimidate ticket buyers. The law excludes individuals reselling fewer than 30 tickets annually for personal use. Currently pending before New Jersey's Assembly Consumer Affairs Committee.
