I purchase coffee for everyday drink from freshroastedcoffee.com.
I have zero affiliation with them. My espresso I get from Nicolettis in Brooklyn, NY. Google either of them.

Try different coffees from groceries and specialty markets. See what you like. Order it on line. Then keep trying stuff to see what else you may like.

I think this is good advice. In my experience find the beans that sound good or are recommended to you from a roaster within three days of shipping time try them. If you like the beans and the roast great, but if you need to adjust the roast call the roaster and see if they will custom roast for you, and reorder. Once you have established a relationship work with the roaster to explore other beans and roasts. My main supplier fits this model and it's great. I visit the Coffee Review website and find growers/roasters and try beans that are highly rated as long as I can get them within three to four days. I live on the East Coast and recently ordered Kona beans from Hawaii. If you are lucky enough to have a roaster in your location you can go sample the coffee and buy the beans that great, but that may limit your choices.
Trying new beans to me is one of the fun things about being a coffee fanatic.

When i was working in Singapore, I ordered my coffee beans from Fine Coffee Company , it appears that they are sold in US at a high price. Now I either get them in bulk from Europe or Stumptown when i'm feeling rich.

The OKBF web store is a one-stop solution for all coffee fans. If you wish to enjoy the richness of fine brews at home, get on the site and buy coffee beans online now. Coffee products bought using the web are always better than the ones kept on shelves in a shop.

Opinions/expectations certainly vary, but claiming that is sort of a stretch. For example, you can buy 'coffee products' all day long online from Amazon, eBay, etc. and the majority of it will be garbage. Old green, stale roasted, name it... Of course some online sellers are fine on quality, roasted-to-order, that sort of thing, but just don't fully trust everything offered online as in claiming to be top notch. Not to mention identity theft is far more likely online as opposed to paying in person in a shop, etc.

I'm located in North Central Fla in and use some roasters within 70 miles, but my go to since they are both in GA and its roasted the day I order is CoffeeAM ( Canton GA) and Volcanica, (Suwanee, GA) about 28 miles apart. Good service from both.

I get a lot of coffee from Amazon. They offer many great coffees, in vacuum sealed bags. Always fresh.
I have a local coffee shop where I buy beans as well.
Identify theft is always an issue, but if you take common sense precautions it is not very likely at all. About as likely as getting held up outside your favorite coffeeshop.

Your definition of fresh might differ from mine. Anytime I've bought coffee online from reputable roasters that roast to order none was ever in vacuum sealed bags. A sealed bag with a 1-way valve is the typical go-to and no vacuum applied if we're discussing the same type of thing.
More power to those that get things like coffee from Amazon, but personally I wouldn't trust 99.9% of it.
Not sure any of the guys that roast/post here deal with Amazon as it's likely more trouble than worth, but I have read of one company based in Brooklyn, NY that offers great roasted to order options and priced very nicely. That's the only Amazon based seller I've read about that seems to come through favorably compared to the typical crap Amazon sells.

If it's being fulfilled by Amazon there is no way to control freshness... unless you call less than a year old fresh.

No, I think our definitions of fresh overlap.
I have had quite the opposite experience from you and "any of the guys". Just about every bag of coffee I have gotten through Amazon has been a sealed bag with a 1-way valve. I guess I assumed a vacuum had been applied because the bag is often tight against the beans. Maybe its just the way the one way valve works.
I also get coffee in a one way sealed bag at the coffee place I go to on the way home. The bags are not tight up to the coffee though. I love their coffee (roasted on premises), but their staff knows little about coffee, and less about customer service. Not caring if they don't have what you want and not suggesting alternatives. They just hand bags out. My point being that buying locally roasted coffee is not always the best experience, either.
Whatever coffee I have ordered from Amazon has, with one exception, arrived fresh, never had an issue. The one exception was quickly replaced with fresh. Sometimes I use Amazon to try a new coffee, and if I really like it make arrangements with the roaster directly. Which means - a roaster that doesn't deal with Amazon, is likely enough to miss my business. Which is fine. I am hardly under caffeinated as it is.

Sure there is. When the beans delivered are not fresh (very rare, only happened once to me) I complain and they fix it.

That's controlling your customer experience, not freshness.
