Thinking of taking in a Mets game when we're in NY in July, anyone recommend a website for booking tickets?

Agreed. I've used them a few times and have no complaints.

That said, I can't imagine that the Mets sell out that often. Why not try the ticket office (or website). That way you're not paying over the odds and you can probably pick them up the day of the game, save you paying a daft postage fee.

cheers for the replies. think ill just book usingmlb.com. There's a few booking fee's, but you can print the tickets at home to save paying $20 delivery charge!

Speaking of ticket prices, I cannot believe the Jays are increasing theirs. Of all years to do it, this should be the year they reduce them, or at least have some sort of offer on (Ie - $5 for 500 level tickets all year round) to get the fans back in, if any way to turn the fans away ala Halladay, this is a close second!

If you book through Ticketmaster just pick them up at the Will Call window. Show your credit card and they print them out in front of you.....simples!

Mets are at home 5th-11th July to the Reds & Braves. 27th July-1st Aug to D`back and Cards. Hope this fits in?

I know, it's a joke. That's one of the reasons I bought a flex pack. That way I get to go to premium priced games and only pay the regular price. Also saves me a bundle on rip-off booking fees and guarantees decent seats.
