Because that would involve shipping charges. Since I ordered it Thursday last week and was expecting to be out of town for two days this week, I decided (at that time) that B&N and Amazon would both arrive around the same time - free regular shipping through both. I could just as easily had Amazon express it to me and get it tomorrow, for a fee. It's not like I will be able to get B&N to reimburse me for the shipping charges - which they should do. They F'd up big time.
