ebay does have some interesting "stuff", doesn't it?
This is why we all have tool boxes full of stems. Even with a professional fitter, a lot of bike fittings come down to trial and error.
Just buy a bunch of budget stems that are around what you think you’ll need in terms of reach and angle. Once you settle on one, buy a nice one in that size.
