Hi graciela. I believe what seejohnbike is referring to is if you were to go to an LBS, have them work with you on selecting a bike, getting the right size, and checking out what options you like, and then you go turn around and buy it online. This is different than if you were to just bring in a bike and have them swap out components for you or get some basic servicing. That's what he meant by being upfront with your intentions to buy online.
