Hello Xavier,
I am not French but I seldom go to Paris looking for used or rare Leicas.
The more intriguing shop , for me, is Maison du Leica in Beaumarchais Blv
just in front of the metro's exit Chemin Vert. There is always a lot of used
or collectibles Leicas.
The manager has a very large collection.
There are many others shops selling Leicas and You can find it out on ads of
Photo Magazines as "Chasseur d'Images".
If Your trip last until the first June's weekend I warmly advise You to see
the photo flea market of Bievres(Ten miles south of Paris).
It is the biggest in Europe and visited by people coming from all the wordl.
If You are at Paris in that period You cannot miss it.
Regards,
Giancarlo
