Depends which ferry you're travelling on, but generally in August (absolute high season) I'd book online directly with the ferry operator, and bring the booking confirmation to the ticket office on the morning of departure to exchange for the actual tickets. If you don't, there's a risk of the ferry filling up with daytrippers from Rhodes. Not a problem out of high season.
There are two ferry departures non stop to Symi on a Thursday morning, the "Symi" operated by Sea Dreams at 09:00; and the Panagia Skiadeni operated by Dodekanisos Seaways at 09:30.
They arrive in Symi almost at the same time, and the Panagia Skiadeni is preferable. Prices online direct from the shipping line will be identical to those charged on the day. Beware of online travel agents who may charge a booking fee, just give them a miss altogether.
