Please help me find a wide angle lens (Nikon)

Getting desperate now :bang:

I'm looking for a wide angle lens, either Sigma 10-20mm, Tamron equivalent or Tokina.

Prices are sky high, as you know, so possibly second hand, but I'm struggling to find one.
Can go new if the price is reasonable.......

I was in the market for a similar lens recently. Apart from checking the forums here I also recommend checking Ffordes and Peter Walnes as second hand dealers. Ffordes in particular seemed to be getting a regular supply of Sigma 10-20mm in. This was a couple of weeks ago now and they sold almost instantly. I ended up with a Tokina 12-25mm for under £300 from Peter Walnes...I'm v v pleased with it.

I should have updated the thread....
I've now got a Sigma 10-20mm from puddleduck.
And what a BEAUTY of a lens it is too
