I am the antichrist -- I just bought a bike online (not on ebay, from some shop in California called Cambria Bike that had a good deal on the one I had been eyeing on ebay). It's a Scott Contessa CR1 Pro and I'm excited.

But now politics...
1) I am going to need to get it all fit to me, probably will want to swap out the stem, etc... Would it be a horrible thing for me to go to the shop I bought my other bikes at (and bf bought his bike at)? I'd be willing to pay for a fit since I didn't buy the bike there -- but somehow I still feel like they would hate me. Would it be better to go to one of the other local shops? How about maintenance? Although I think the quality of the maintenance shop at "my" LBS runs pretty hot and cold, I feel like there's something to be said for the fact that they know me, they know my bikes, they know my bike's history, etc... I've been going there for about two years now. But is it evil for me to wheel in my shiny new ride I bought online and ask them to do work on it?

(A related question: I want to switch out the triple on my cx bike for a compact. I am not skilled enough to do the labor myself, but I'd much rather buy the parts online, because I'll get a much better deal. Ethics of this?).

2) Once I get the new bike, I will want to sell my Felt. I'm going to need a few things done (will switch back to original bars and stem, which will require new cables, etc; will probably do a full tune-up as due diligence). Do I have this done at "my" LBS or somewhere else?

3) And a totally different subject... I want to sell the bike locally rather than on ebay if I can... although I've bought and sold successfully on ebay, I'm kind of hesitant to sell a bike on ebay because a) there's always that annoying person who bids your auction way up and then backs out -- and it's a hassle to work all of that out and relist; and b) I'd be scared to death that someone would get the bike and despite my best efforts to describe it as accurately as possible, they'd find something wrong with it or different than they expected, and it would be a huge hassle. How do I go about figuring out an asking price? I haven't seen anything just like it on Ebay or Craigslist. It's a Felt F50, Ultegra drivetrain. 2004 model but probably less than 3000 miles (definitely less than 5000)... Does $500 sound too high, given the age? It's in really good shape...

Thanks for your help and sorry this is so rambling.
