[QUOTE="DonnieZ, post: 499337, member: 40831"] Thinking about pulling the trigger on a Sigma 17-50 f/2.8 HSM OS. I'd love to have the Nikkor, but the price swing is just WAY too big for me to justify it as a hobbyist. If I made my income with the lens, maybe.. I see wildly swinging prices on this lens.. like $469 from Amazon, $399 from Amazon, and as low as like $307 for a new copy from eBay sellers in the United States. What's the deal here? What's the pitfalls of buying this off of eBay? The sellers have good feedback and many for sale. Is warranty the driver here? How likely am I to need a warranty on this lens? Of the four lenses I own in my signature, I've never had a lick of trouble with them, but admittedly they are Nikkor lenses. Help me out - If it's as good as it seems I'll probably order it today.
