Invention Submission Corporation
Invention Submission Corp. Stole my laundry basket idea HIPHUGGER and sold it to Rubbermaid after I couldn't give them $6000.00 Pittsburg, Pennsylvania. I kept the copy and courtstamped it before mailing it and they kept my idea. Pittsburg

Approx 1986, I sent my idea of the now "Hiphugger" to ISC. They wanted $6000 upfront to patent and present my idea. I told them that I didn't have that kind of money and to send my idea back until I could get the money raised. They refused. They didn't know that I had a copy of my idea and I had it stamped by the courthouse. Needless to say, in 1991 (approx.) I was in Shopko and when I was in the back of the store, I saw my invention! I freaked and was telling anyone that I could bump into. I even told the manager that they shouldn't put my invention there and proceeded to tell him why. Of course there was nothing that I, they, or he could do. I called a couple of attorneys and they said that unless I have money to fight Rubbermaid (of which I don't) then there was nothing that they could do. I even asked and gave all of my info to my X Sister-n-Law who's an attorney along with her dad and brother and they wouldn't/couldn't do anything about it. I even called Rubbermaid and they ignored me. Just recently, I emailed them. I don't think I'll ever give up. I've reported it to BBB and they said that there had been other complaints. I even thought about picketing on Rubbermaid's front door step. I'm a single mother and I have many invention ideas but now I keep them in my head where nobody can take and steal my idea and make millions. I barely make ends meet still and the money would've been nice.
