    Yes you can always find better deals on the internet. I buy my mag drives on ebay for literally, and I mean LITERALLY half the price they are sold for at all my LFS (LFS sells a mag-7 for $120, but on ebay you can get it shipped for around $60).

    they are cheap, but they probably don't come with bulbs, most didn't have cooling fans and the description says nothing about reflectors. Not that it is a bad deal, but I bought my t5 fix. for $200 from Dr. F & S and it has a fan and came with bulbs. You would probably spend another $100 dollars on bulbs

    No I know the ones from Aquatraders come with bulbs. For one, it says it in the description, and for two, I've ordered 2 MH fixtures from them and they came with all the bulbs and reflectors and fans. It was the whole package.
