I don't see in your review where it says the Sigma is a "laughable POS". I realize its the bottom of the 24-70 lineup but for the price it is a very viable lens choice for those that can't afford the...

You are right. I didn't realize that this one is HSM. Wondering if its worth taking a look at now. I'm sure there you've used a non hsm lens before. Is it that much of a noticeable difference? ...

I haven't used any non-HSM Sigma lens before. The only other Sigma I have is the 70-200 that also has it. And out of my Nikon glass the only one I have that isn't AF-S is my 50 f/1.8 D. It's great...

I think reviews are favorable. I don't think there is a perfect lens out there, so as long as it's solid, I'd go with that. I wouldn't want to buy something that's cheaper but much crappier

I'm in same boat here....selling my 24-105 before the 70-200 II shows up :D to cover up part of the costs
Hopefully we are not competing for this sale.

No way can you get this lens for $250 used, at least on Nikon. I've been watching used prices of this and other lenses for a while and they hover around $600.
And for anyone considering this...

Maybe you mean the previous version without HSM? The lowest I've seen the HSM version used was $575, and that was FredMiranda which I usually use as a benchmark. If you have better sources I'd love...

This might be decent, but the Tamron 28-75 f/2.8 is well renowned, stellar lens for cheaper. This has HSM focusing though. Sigma is known for large variations in quality control.

I have both Canon 24-70 and Tamron 28-75. I use canon lens for work and Tamron for pleasure. If I could have my way, I'd shoot with Tamron all the time. Sigma typically has front focusing issues.
