I'd hate to be in your shoes having to make such a decision without being able to hear them in person first. Personally, if I did not have a way to try them out first, I would not pull the trigger. I've gotten lucky a few times doing that, but I also knew that if I changed my mind I would not have lost too much time and money. This does not seem to be the case here.

Yes, buying amps without listening to them is a tough decision !!
I only did this with McIntosh products in the past and I have been happy with all of them. Moreover, selling them has always been easy.
The Shindo prices are comparable to Mc amps, and much more expensive if you count the price per Watt. So yes, a tough decision....
