I have buyers remorse on just about everything I buy. Unfortunately I don't learn and keep on buying. I have a degree in nuclear spending. Buy it, use it, enjoy it! You will learn what you like, don't like, make mistakes and find that some of the items you question were the best buys you made. Stop analyzing and go shoot some pictures!!!
A wonderful way to frame this!

My Tammy 18-270 came yesterday. Hope it's as good as some have reported. Holding my breath while I compare it to my kit Nikor 55-200

I read here that Canon L lenses are the best. I read also that Tamron is making good lenses. There are sites where you can compare the evaluations. The lens changing issue seems to be the driving factor here. The suggestion of an extender with the L lens doesn't address that, and Image Quality could be involved there as well. If IQ is as high a concern as the changing lenses issue, flip a coin. If IQ is more important, I'd live with changing lenses.

The beauty of the 28-300 is the range; since I got mine (Nikon) I find most of my shots are at near 28 or near 300, much of the time one right next to the other, very hard to do swapping lenses.

I'm just not sure....I have ordered the Tamron 28-... (show quote)
I have both the Tamron 28-300 and Canon 24-105 L. The Canon 24-105 is the sharpest of the two; keep it! The Tamron 28-300 is a good general purpose, mid-range zoom; should work well on the Canon 6D but if you're not happy with it return it. If you keep the Tamron, I would suggest a Kenko 1.4x teleconverter to extend its length to 39-420mm; works quite nicely.

I am still using an old Tamron 18 to 250mm on my Canon T5-- no IS on the lens and I have the 18 to 270mm and wouldn't trade that old Tamron for the newer one --Keep the L lens you will not be sorry

I would not do anything until you are satisfied with the results from the Tamron. Then if it meets your criteria, then maybe put the lens on Ebay.
That makes the most sense to me.
