I have a shoot in Deerfield Bch., and need to pick up some tapes while I'm down there... Any suggestions? West Palm? Miami? Ft. Lauderdale? Prefer Panasonic Master Quality.

Aren't there ANY Video supply houses in S. Fla?

Why not get them online?
i.e. www.taperesources.com (lots of people have a positive experience with them)
www.tapestockonline.com (cheaper)

My problem with doing it online, is the shoot is the day after tomorrow (Saturday), and the Producer only just started to worry about getting tapes yesterday. This is after I told him what tapes to get, and where to order them 3-4 weeks ago.

Nothing like waiting till the last minute!

Undoubtedly there must be some sources in Miami / Lauderdale.

If you're very desperate you can try to use Panasonic's dealer locator (http://b2b.panasonic.com/webapp/wcs/stores/Locator/Search.jsp?cmpycd=3).
