Hi all, Long time lurker here

How loyal are you to your LBS? I am thinking about buying a new bike, but need to sell/trade in my current one to make it happen. LBS #1 where I bought the bike does not have a buy/trade in program. I generally like this LBS and they have lots of group rides and events that I participate in regularly. There is another LBS on the other side of town that has a trade in program. I would feel strange showing up at LBS #1's events with a new bike purchased from another shop (they both sell the same brand). I suppose I could sell on my own, but it just seems easier to trade in through the shop. Thoughts?
