Does the retail E3-12xx processors include a heatsink/fan in the box?

I know traditionally Xeons do not.

It doesn't seem included in retail box (at least in France) but i'd like other users confirm it.

Just received a E3-1230 from NewEgg (pn BX80623E31230) and it includes the heatsink/fan.

My retail samples all did include the HSF. This seems to be the same unit provided with the other LGA 1156 and LGA 1155 retail units (although there are different suppliers).
