The price isn't that high, it's a cheap lens.
The most important thing are the following figures -> f 4.5-6.7
Although it's a cheap I don't recommend it. Reason being; That you will suffer too much light loss shooting between 200 and 400 mm. You can compensate that by shooting at low shutterspeeds but I think that's out of the question when the lens doesn't come with a vibration reduction system.
You will be amazed how much light you need to end up with bright pictures. It has to be on hell of a sunshiny day.
When it comes to a low budget zoom lens for a Nikon I would go for the 70-300mm by Nikkor.
If you want to get rid of some of your money you can go for Sigma's 70-200mm f2.8
But this one ... no thanks. I might be the wrong guy to answer this question, I have the tendency to spend a decent amount of money on a zoomlens because I want to end up with bright and detailed pictures.
Cheers
