ABOUT US

WHO WE ARE:

National Powersports Distributors (formerly The Collectable Trader) is a company founded upon the belief that everybody should have a chance to enjoy the freedom that motorcycling allows.

WHAT WE DO:

We put every motorcycle that we sell through a rigorous inspection process and you see all the results. Our full disclosure policy and comprehensive inspection process will ensure that you know everything about the vehicles that we sell. We take pride in offering our vehicles on-line, and have positioned ourselves as specialists with the process. We know that buying a vehicle sight unseen can be a scary proposition, and we are constantly working to improve our listings and provide you with honest, detailed information.

OUR STORY:

In 2002 Nathan and Amy Sanel had decided that the money they were investing into their mutual funds would be better spent buying an old motorcycle and fixing it up in their garage. From those humble beginnings National Powersports was born. Deciding to sell on the internet rather than in a traditional showroom setting allowed them to develop a comprehensive system of safety checks and condition reports that allowed their customers to know the exact condition of the motorcycle even if they were located across the country.

Originally their emphasis was on vintage bikes, but soon the requests for modern bikes started to come in from all over the world. The depth of information that was marketed about the motorcycle was something that was not being done, even in traditional dealer locations. This allowed National Powersports to begin selling all types and years of Motorcycles, ATV's, Snowmobiles, Scooters and Watercraft. Since starting, National Powersports has outgrown their location 3 times and the growth continues to this day. In 2006 they moved to 701 Riverwood Drive, Pembroke NH to a 15,000 square foot facility. In this location they opened their first true retail store.

According to Nathan Sanel, it still is not a traditional dealership. "None of our team is paid by commission. We put a full condition report on each vehicle and the price that we need to get for it. We duplicate our on-line buying experience. It's a great place to look at a huge selection of motorcycles without the pressure. Because we sell so many vehicles on-line, walk ins are not our only avenue for sales so we don't have to high-pressure the people that visit us. Our pricing is extremely competitive because we work on a smaller margin and turn our inventory more than the industry standards."

National Powersports success is due to one primary factor. The first line on the company service statement is "Tell the truth". That is the guiding principal for everything that they do. Nathan says, "At the end of the day, its not just about making money. It is about building a company that has integrity. The group of people who love riding are like family. I sleep well knowing that everybody gets treated the same way and was told the full truth about the vehicle they purchased here."

In the July 2006 Entrepreneur Magazine National Powersports was referenced in an article titled "Star Treatment" and recognized for their outstanding customer service for sales on eBay. The company has also been profiled in several books including the eBay for Dummies by Marsha Collier. The company currently has 18 employees and is experiencing excellent growth.
