Depends on what you're looking for. If you plan on skating once and a while, or playing hockey with them, you can go to the check. If you plan on racing or doing some aggressive skates, you'll have to go to a specialized shop or store.

Back in the day when I was aggressively blading, ABEC3 bearings were the way to go. But prices for bearings are low right now, so I'd look for something with ABEC7 bearings (at least ABEC5s).

If you plan on doing aggressive you're probably better off to buy the skate that is designed for it. Trying grinds and like that with the average skate will chop your skates up good.
