Do you know any bow hunters. Most would be glad to help you out. They maybe looking to upgrade, just ask.
I've bought several off ebay and haven't been burned in that department yet.
A good pro shop is a good place to go but not all are good. A small shop is looking to make money, they need to. What they have may not be all that good but it is what they sell so that is what they will push. it's just the way it is. I think that you should make a pest of yourself in as many shops as you can before you spend a penny. Then after you have shot their bows several times and compared the specks of each finding similarities in the ones you shoot the best disregard the rest and start the bargaining. When you find the one you want say no more about price because at this point they will have earned your business. Let them recommend the set up and go with it. Be sure to recommend the shop to others and ask them to mention your name when they go there. There's no hurry. Take your time and don't be rushed.

As many have said already the reflex bows are well made.

The rest is up to you.
