: : If I were to come up with an idea for conducting a type of business online that is not currently in existence and (by my unofficial estimates) could be very profitable, how much (roughly) could I expect to sell a patent for that business idea? A few million? Ten or more million? : : Also, would the fact that conducting this type of business over the Internet may be illegal in the U.S., but not illegal in other countries, impede my chances of obtaining a U.S. Patent for it? : : Thank you, : : Michael : Dear Michael, : Just getting a patent is usually a waste of money even in many instances when the invention is meritorious. : It is thinking like yours that feed a $100M+ a year scam in soliciting hopeful inventors to file patent application. In the scam only 1 in 10000 make more than they pay. : We start with a Reality Check™ to save time money and worry. : M.
