    Scrap Gold - VAT

    Thanks Jenni, Just what I needed. I only mention VAT as for a couple of Bullion Dealers it is a prerequisite. Unsure why but so be it. Now just so I don't start threads all over the show, do you know if I need any licenses to buy/sell precious metal? Scrap. Thanks again, Brightidea

    Patent, design registration????

    My Patent attorney seemed a little dismayed when I mentioned Innovate and others as a way forward for my project. The cost of a Patent isn't ridiculously expensive, not that I'm any expert. My total bill for filing in the UK is about £4K. inc searches etc. However, for that you get a...
