Not to sound like an @ss, but unless he has a patent on the princaples of his design, then its not really his"legally" in the eyes of the gov.
Most people probably feel that if he was worried about someone copying them, that he would be protected and boast his patent pending rights...........which as far as I know, he hasnt.
I dont know about you guys, but if I had designed the WW, You can bet your @ss that Ive have a patent pending before I had shown or told anyone of it. Because these "clones" are going to be popping up for quite some time and theres really nothing he's going to be able to do to stop it legally. NOTHING.

You are being an @$$.
1. How much would you feasibly earn selling these.
2. How much would a patent cost, roughly £2000 in the UK, and that only prevents the sale of the patented goods in the UK.
You would need to have a patent in each of the countries you planned to market in and be prepared to have people copy and sell it in other countries.
Patents are only worth while if you can afford to maintain them, and more iportantly, defend them. This costs big money.
