The charge is $59 per order (which in our case might be 4 or 5 ballgames) and it's claimed the tickets will arrive at the hotel designated.
I'm inclined to think it's legit but wanted to throw it out here (no pun intended) and see if anyone has experience with this (or any other service).
I used it during the summer of 2012 for two games, Tigers at Buffaloes and Tigers at Hawks. The service is indeed legit and my tickets were waiting for me at my hotel in Osaka when I checked in. However, I was disappointed that the seats were fairly poor. In hindsight, I probably would just try my luck buying tickets at the ballpark in the future, as long as it wasn't a Tigers v. Giants match up as referenced up thread. I'm going to be in Sapporo in May and will try my best to catch the Fighters at the Sapporo Dome. Not thrilled to be going to my third dome in Japan but I'm sure it'll still be fun.
