Is the 18-55 better than the 28-80?

Neither of those Tamron lenses are rated very well. The "wide angle" and "telephoto" lenses, the other filters, tripods and "flash" are garbage.

The vendor looks decent:

but they're making their money by forcing you to buy a bunch of low-end accessories. With a DSLR, the lens is the single most important physical component if you want good images. The camera body is really a minor component. It's a lot like buying a cheap skimmer. By the time you realize that what you bought doesn't work so you go out and by a good one you're already out more cash than if you'd bought the right thing the first time.
Cheers
