Q1 child retailers - have you tried Clarks?
Q2 make and model are immaterial, just get the ones with the most pink.
Q3 definitely think that this means that you should go to Chamonix in early December for a long weekend

Most of the ski shops in Verbier do the following Annual Rental deal:
You pay 60% of the new price for new kit
40% of the new price for 1 year old kit.
If it needs to be changed during the year (growing kids feet a prime reason) it can be changed as often as needed at no extra cost (and if you opted for the new kit then you keep getting a brand new pair at each change).
Any decent ski shop will take time and care over fitting the boots in such a case.
We have found it to be by far the best way of getting boots for the kids.
However we buy their own skis, always specifying rental style bindings, and then the skis last 3-4 seasons by the time they have been passed down from son to daughter.

boredsurfin, Just bought myson some more boots from Ski Bartlett. He's had his Rossis for 3 snow weeks and a whole season of training / racing on the dry so I can't complain.
The boots we so well used that I couldn't bring myself to try and get the discount from Snow and Rock for a child upgrade so I have donated them to Hemel Club for use by kids in need.
Bartlett's have a wide range of kids secondhand boots which have been traded in after very little use. The new (to us) Technicas were only £45 looked virtually un-used and my lad promptly went out on them the next day and finished second in BG2 in the first summer league ERSA! Worth every penny to have a specialist assess his needs and kit him out correctly.
