The term patent pending informs the public that a person filed a patent application with the United States Patent and Trademark Office for that particular item. The patent pending designation does not give the person any legal rights; it just means that the patent office will review their application. It does not guarantee that a patent will be awarded. It is a warning to potential competitors. Hopefully they won’t put the time and money into developing a product for which you may end up holding the patent.

What do you have to do build and sell something that has a patent on it?
(Answer keyed for the US but applies generally in other countries) First, you should be sure that the product actually has a valid patent that gives someone else the exclusive right to make, use, sell, offer to sell, or import the patented item. This can be a tricky exercise because it requires skill in interpreting patent rights. Assuming that such a patent exists, you should then determine whether the patent covers the whole product or just a piece (for example, a single gear in a machine or the machine itself. if enough money is involved, you may want to get a formal clearance opinion (also called a freedom to practice opinion) from qualified and competent patent counsel. The general rule is that you need the patent holder's permission. You can get that by: 1. Purchasing the patent itself and becoming the patent holder; 2. Purchasing permission in the form of a license to the patent; or 3. Purchasing the patented item from the patent holder or an authorized licensee of the patent and reselling the item (this implicates something called patent exhaustion). This can be an exceptionally tricky area with very high stakes from both legal and business perspectives. You would be well advised to obtain the services of an experienced patent attorney who can advise you properly.
