I strongly recommend going directly with Disney or your travel agent to get the ticktes, for several reason.
1). Disney tickets now expire 14 days after the first use, this means that, unless the no-expiration option is added on, the tickets will be no good several weeks or years down the road, but for the next 14 days. Most people don't purchase the no-expiration option, but people will still sell the tickets online that they have used, so you are basically buying an empty ticket.
2). Even if you are getting a ticket that still has days left on it, the tickets are non-transferable. Once you use your ticket the first time, you scan your fingers into a biometrics system so that only you can use that ticket. If you go to the park and use someone elses ticket, you will have to proove that you actually are the person on the ticket, or you will have to buy a new ticket.
3). Aside from the tickets just being a scam and you getting nothing for the money you spend, a lot of what you will find online is going to be a timeshare deal. Basically, you sit through a presentation, usually several hours long, and they will either give you free tickets or a lower rate, or something like that. This is not something I really suggest doing, but if you don't mind it, then it is a good way to get some free tickets.
When you are in Orlando, if you wait to buy your tickets, there will still be a lot of places advertising lower cost tickets. Most of these will be scams or the timeshare deal.
If you buy your tickets from Disney, or a TA, you will get an advance purchase savings. It isn't a huge savings, but it is something. The longer your pass is, the lower your cost is per day, and you can get them for around $30, plus any add ons you do. So, Disney does offer some pretty good rates for tickets.
Finally, AAA would be another option. I believe you have to do a 2 or 3 day pass before they offer any savings, however. If you are not a member, make sure you check how much you would actually save and what the cost of membership is. The savings may not be good enough to buy the membership and still save.
Personally, I always book a package with Disney, just so I can ge the dining plan. I go to Disney enough that I could get an AP and be done with it, but I like the dining plan so much I just buy my tickets each time (even though I could have my AP and just buy a one day base to get the dining) So, if you will be staying onsite, look into doing a package. The dining plan can save you 40% off of your food, it is a really great deal and you get a lot of food.
Since you are wanting the longer Disney pass, you will need to get two seperate tickets, one 10 day pass and one 4 day pass since their longest ticket is 10 days. As for the flex ticket, the discount is already figured into the ticket, and it is a huge savings. So, you are generally better off just purchasing them right from Universal directly, since you probably won't be able to find any lower rates.
Have a great time!

Get disney Ultimate tickets! They are well worth the money and also flexible, dont get them from a company u've not heard of though, try disney online or Teletext.com or even travel agents. Ultimate tickets are around £180 each for adults and they are unlimited acces for 14 days to any disney park icluding water parks. U will have a fab time! I'm very jealous!!! xxxxxxx

AAA offers the best discounted park tickets. A membership is required. You can also visit your local Disney Store to receive a small discount on park tickets. Have a great trip!

The best thing to do is, if you have a friend who lives in Florida have them buy the tickets for you or send them the money. For florida residents the tickets only cost around $55.

Do you mean online, or when you are there?
If you mean when you are there, you will see loads of little booths selling cheap tickets.
They are usually 2nd hand (ie someone bought a 14 day ticket, but left after 7 days, leaving 7 days usage).
Be careful cos they fingerprint you at the gates. I went to Animal Kingdom with 2nd hand tickets, my fingerprint didnt match, but they still let me in.

Try the internet. Go to Walt Disney's web sight and you should get great dicounts there. That what me and my husband did for our honeymoon and we had a blast!
