The proposed bill aims to regulate ticket sales in Ohio by enacting sections 1345.53 and 1345.54 of the Revised Code. It defines key terms related to ticket sales, such as "entertainment," "online ticket marketplace," and "ticket reseller," and establishes requirements for transparency in pricing. Specifically, ticket resellers and online marketplaces must disclose all mandatory fees at the time of price display, provide itemized breakdowns of ticket costs, and ensure that the total cost is not misleading. Additionally, they are prohibited from increasing ticket prices after the initial display and must provide proof of purchase to buyers within 24 hours of a resale transaction.

The bill also outlines prohibited practices for ticket sales, including selling multiple copies of the same ticket, employing others to purchase tickets for resale against venue policies, and using misleading domain names. It establishes that violations of these regulations constitute unfair or deceptive acts, enforceable by the attorney general. However, the bill clarifies that it does not create a private cause of action for individual consumers. Overall, the legislation seeks to enhance consumer protection and transparency in the ticket sales market.
