Ooohh I remember that store. In my neck of the woods (western Canada) they were
called "Consumers Distributing" (which is essentially what you've written in
French, I guess). Their style of selling was to have no showroom whatsoever -
and you'd just order an item at the counter and they'd go to their warehouse and
pick up the item.
I always enjoyed looking at their catalogue, looking at all the new toys
(especially the LEGO sets)...
