It's a little sad that we need to actually say this, but:
Don't be an asshole or you will be permanently banned.
Respectful debate is totally OK, criticizing a product is fine, but being verbally abusive will not be tolerated.
Focus on discussing the idea, not attacking the person.

You might get some close to that on sale, Yamaha RC was like $1250 for a while I think. There's also REI Co-op, which certainly isn't the best, but it should get you from point A to point B without burning your house down.
You raise a good point on REI. I would trust any of those to not burn down my neighbor's house. I would also trust REI to be able to work on any bike they sell, AND make sure it's actually set up correctly before it goes out the door. At the LBS where my partner works, just about every day, people bring in bikes that would put the fear in you. The "new in box" mail order ebikes can fill a novel just by themselves.
