Not gone for the 14-24 AF-S f2.8 but have also picked up a bargain off eBay - found a site in Guernsey that seems to sell "faulty" customer returns - all sort of makes. They had 3 Nikon 17-35mm f2.8 AF-S D(IF). Advertised as customer returns took a punt on one at £200 thinking that this is a £1000 lens and it might be worth a trip into Nikon Service and got it! Put it on my D3 and the only "fault" I can find is that the Silent Wave Motor whistles slightly - apart from that - perfect!!!
