Swisstop pads - where from?

I'm about to upgrade to a 105 groupset and want to put some good brake pads on from the start but I can't seem to find any Swisstop ones online and my LBS doesn't stock them.

Any online stockists that you can point me towards?

And I've heard about the green and salmon ones. Apart from the colour, what's the difference? Any recommendations?

Thanks

    Give planet x a call. A load of us picked sets of flash pro green (4 pads) up for £10 each last week through their eBay store. Maybe they have a few more laying around.

    Mine arrived today in a huuuuuge envelope. I was all excited till I did the feel test and felt only four brake blocks :(
    I've added a signature to prove it is still possible.

    I remember a similar look of disappointment on my wife's face a long time ago. :lol:
