Assuming that the price I would pay for a kindle directly from amazon is equal to the price that I would pay if I bought from a local electronics store, what are the advantages of ordering directly from amazon?

My local electronics store tells me that they have the new basic and Paper White in stock and can put it in my hands as soon as I walk through the doors, it would take amazon at least a week to get it to me.
