Reefgeek Retros: Bulbs included?

[Ursus]

In the description it doesn't say anything about bulbs being included, just the recommended combo, but in the picture it shows bulbs. Are they included?

Also, Champion sells the same retro for less, but a different selection of bulbs. Are the ATI bulbs really worth the extra dough?

I was hoping that RC would be quicker but I guess I'll have to shoot them an email.
