North Carolina's Statute of Frauds requires any sale of goods priced at $500 or more to be in writing. For high-value photography gear like professional mirrorless bodies or lighting rigs, an oral agreement is unenforceable in court; a signed Bill of Sale is mandatory for legal protection.
Yes, but it must be explicitly stated. Under federal law and NC general business practices, the photographer typically retains copyright.
