We have a couple on Sennheiser e935s, but I really don't think the SM58 can be beaten. My wife has used the same one for just over 20 years. I have tried so many other vocal mics but IMO it's still the best all rounder. The slight presence kick it give is really beneficial for male vocals especially.
Mrs.K and I use the SM58 Beta A mics and these were recommended to us by a sound guy. The difference between that and a regular 58 is quite noticeable. There's more clarity, and although this may sound silly, there appears to be more body from the Beta and it's quite sensitive too (in a good way).
Not sure of used prices, but new, they're £140-150, so not cheap, but recommended

This.
Also, it never ceases to amaze me that spend hundreds and thousands on something for our fingers to make a noise and use the cheapest trashey mic and PA for the all important voice.
How you use the mic and where determines what you should go for, if you are in a loud (stage noise) band then something with a narrow pickup pattern is appropriate and kiss the grill, if you are in a lounge band then less directional mics with better sensitivity are what you want. Some of the current crop of condenser mics are hardy and give great reproduction quality.

I want to get a mic for vox in my house... Used to have a condenser. But would I be better just getting an sm58 which I could also use live?

The only real caveat - apart from watching out for fake ones, which are now common - is that they're so standard that it's really worth engraving your initials into it or some other means of permanent identification, or someone will try to nick it if you leave it on a stand at a gig for more than about two minutes at pack-up...
