I am going to buy some angels at the LFS. How do I know which ones to buy?

At the LFS, you can ask the store owner a few questions. One question you should ask is when the angels came in. If it has been only a couple of days, I would wait until some time has passed. You never know if they are carrying a disease, or are sick.

If it has been some time since they got them in, then approach the tank and see if there are any dead angels in there. Check that their fins are nice and straight. If you see fish huddling at the top, bottom or back of the tank, looking dejected, again, pass, as they are likely sick. Raise your hand to the top of the tank as if you are going to feed them. If they rush over to you, then it is likely that they are healthy.
