1. What Is a Patent?  
A patent give the patent owner a monopoly on the terms of the patent, for a 
certain number of years. The patent owner can prevent other people from 
manufacturing or selling anything covered in the patent.  
 
So,
avoid selling anything with an existing patent​
!  
2. Patent Pending  
“Patent Pending” means that someone has applied for the patent, but it has 
not been granted yet.
Avoid these products, too!  
 
You can monitor the patent to see whether or not it gets approved, however, 
this is likely to be a long wait, and may not be worth your time.  
3. Patent Information  
The best way to perform patent searches on your potential products is 
through the
official US government site​
, which provides a huge amount of 
information:

4. Patent Searches  
There are different types of patent searches. They are:  
 
Approved patent search: Use product keywords to search the database 
or existing patents. Click this link to access the search engine:

Pending patent search: Use product keywords to search the database 
for pending patents. Click this link to access the search engine: 
http://appft.uspto.gov/netahtml/PTO/search-bool.html  
 
When in doubt about a product, search
both
databases.  
5. When and What to Search 
Do not start your patent search until AFTER you have your list of hot 
opportunities.
We recommend waiting until you have narrowed your list down 
to your final three products.  
 
The vast majority of products on Amazon that are sold by multiple sellers
and 
match our criteria are
unlikely to have a patent​
, which is great news for you.
