Lucky you, I have NOTHING at all to do at work today!
If you're plenty of euros, then, you can also go to Monster Melodies (near Parallèles & Gilda), super-collectors store, ugly prices, cunt sellers

One of the best distributors I know is in Paris: Toolbox. www.toolboxrecords.com
30 rue St. ambroise.. they used to be in the back of a recordstore that would carry some of their catalog.. heavy on the breakcore, noise, experimental.. also High Tone and other dub experiments. really knowledgable and good people.
You might could check their catalog online and then come by to pick it up.. save on shipping costs.. I dunno if they still do that. But can't recommend it enough for selection.
