I just ordered the 23.6" from b&h for $178 no tax no shipping.

I ordered some things from newegg and they have been in Edison, NJ since 3 pm yesterday.
B&H has my monitor in Ohio atm, headed to Chicago. Both claim to be on time to deliver tomorrow.
My first time purchasing from both. B&H seems legit, I already knew newegg was reputable.
Also, those non VS series monitors are the old and out of date models and have lots more neg reviews compared to the new VS Series.
