Beginning 180 days after the date of the enactment of this Act, a ticket issuer, secondary market ticket issuer, or secondary market ticket exchange that does not have actual or constructive possession of an event ticket shall not sell, offer for sale, or advertise for sale such event ticket. Nothing in this section shall be construed to prohibit a secondary market ticket issuer or secondary market ticket exchange from offering a service to a consumer to obtain an event ticket on behalf of the consumer if the secondary market ticket issuer or secondary market ticket exchange complies with the following:
Does not market or list the service as an event ticket. Maintains a clear, distinct, and easily discernible separation between the service and event tickets through unavoidable visual demarcation that persists throughout the entire service selection and purchasing process. Clearly and conspicuously discloses before selection of the service that the service is not an event ticket and that the purchase of the service does not guarantee an event ticket. In the event the service is unable to obtain the specified event ticket purchased through the service for the consumer, provides the consumer that purchased the service, within a reasonable amount of time— a full refund for the total cost of the service to obtain an event ticket on behalf of the consumer; or subject to availability, a replacement event ticket in the same or a comparable location with the approval of the consumer.
Does not obtain more tickets in each transaction than the numerical limitations for tickets set by the venue and artist for each respective event.
