would you be interrested in my idea for a magnetic powered engine w/ an automatic charging system,for cars?

Question

want to sell the invention idea,have had it since 1967,had a prototype stolen, can't get the money to get patented,so want to sell it,and let someone else patent it that has the money or go into a partnership/sharing relation(they finance to get it patented and another prototype built and put into acar.

Answer 1

too bad you didn't know about the poor man's patent...Should have just sent yourself a letter with all info in it and not opened it til someone stole your idea.

Answer 2

NO. If it was workable I am sure someone else would have patented it in the years since 1967. I will skip this one.

I once worked with a guy who had a clever idea about a novel technique for powering cars and he too was always yelling about how people were stealing his thoughts. That is a really big turn off for a collaboration.

Answer 3

Let's see, a guy who doesn't have the skill to make enough money to afford a patent. Clearly no more than $10,000, somewhere between $5000 or $10000 for a really good patent attorney.

Or, doesn't have the intelligence to file the patent papers himself, and or the $500 to $1000 to do it this way.

But, seems to think he has a perpetual motion machine.

No thanks, I'll pass.

Answer 4

It's been some time since the patent office stopped issuing patents on perpetual motion machines.

Answer 5

Well what would you say if I told you I had this idea and a model car that ran when I was 12 years old. I'm now 65. It will work, but one is alive to tell about it rather than being missing as many inventors in the past. People in oil and gas, are not going to allow something like this on the market. Take it from me, keep your mouth shut and live to see another day.
