123nc.com provides NO useful information for the $17.50 initial search.  

They have a tutorial page that shows a great deal of information on the sample person searched.  They have a demo page that does not work.  The site requires a credit card number and requires a user to agree that all charges will be accapted and requires credit card information.  Once the credit card information is provided, a charge of $17.50 is made to the card and a search produces only the following information:

   NC ADMIN OFFICE OF COURTS          01920COUNTY 1997CR002424      NAME OF DEFENDANT   00/00/1906

   Sex: MALE Race: BLACK/AFRICAN AMERICAN Hair: N/A Eyes: N/A Weight: Height:
   Status: N/A
   Comments: DATE CASE SERVED: 00/31/1997; DL STATE: NC; TRIAL DATE: 00/25/1998

This information is completely useless.  In order to get the case details, the user must click on the case number (Shown in red).  Clicking on that link reveals the case details but costs an additional $17.50.  The person I was searching had 33 cases.  To get the basic case information about what the defendant was charged with and what the final result was would have required payment of $577.50.  GET REAL.  I can drive to all the jurisdictions and get reports for $4 each.  My total time and energy will cost me less than $20.

I strongly recommend you avoid this site.  Their excessive charges must pay for the great deal of advertising I see.
