You can always avoid the on line service charges by coming down to the box office in person. There is no reason to wait until the day of show, as the box office holds regular hours for advance sales: M-F from 12-11pm on show days, M-F from 12-7pm on dark days, and one hour before doors on Sat and Sun's. However, if you can not make it to the box office soon, to ensure you have a ticket, you should consider buying on line for this event.
