No.

Where can I buy tickets from?

You can book your tickets online. Esepcially when you travel during the high season, make sure to book your ticket ahead of time.

You can also book via a travel agent in your country or directly via a Greek travel agency.

Another good option is to buy your tickets direct from the port (Port Gate Ε1). Unless you plan to travel when everyone else is (weekends during the high season) there isn’t much need to book your tickets in advance.

Does everyone charge the same prices?

According to the web sites the prices you pay via their booking system are the same as the ones in the port. Even if there’s a difference, it’s not significant.

Important note:

Although the websites do their best to have the schedules updated it’s hard to do that since the ferry companies submit their schedules weekly to the Ministry of Mercantile Marine. Your best bet is to check this link the day before departure (or the day of before) just to make sure things haven’t changed.
