Complete bikes with Campagnolo
I am researching a new bike. This will be a second bike I keep in addition to my Calfee Tetra Pro. My Calfee is equipped with Campy and I want to stay with a Campagnolo groupset.
There are better deals on bikes when they come as a complete package. Do you know of many manufacturers that build with Campy? Oh, one more thing. This isn't a deal killer but I am not a fan of integrated headsets.

Cannondale does...but it isn't cheap and it has an integrated headset.
Bikesdirect.com does but I have a feeling you might be loking for something a bit different.

Several brands have Record available on top offerings but there aren't that many that have it on the mid-lower levels. It seems to me that Bianchi and Colnago are the only ones that have it throughout that I see...

Bikes: Yeah, I got a few.
Bianchi, Pinarello, Colnago, Specialized in Europe, Cervelo, Ridley...
Lots do.
It's something else, however, to find a shop that stocks them. I expect it's even harder in the US.

Honestly I think only think of a single bike at any LBS in my town (4 of them) that has Campy on it. And that is a Serotta the shop built up from frame with 2005 Centaur components they took off a Six13 frame before selling just the frame (had the Cannondale in the shop for 3 years). None of them stocks anything Campagnolo...everything has to be ordered...and they wonder way I mail order everything?
Um duh...if you don't stock it and I am going to have to wait for it anyway why not pay less for it.
