This kind of charge will happen with smaller vendors. I have had vendors charge for an upgrade fee on occasion.

We have received such an invoice as well.  This is the first time that I have seen such a charge from a vendor.  I'm really glad that someone put this out for discussion, as I was caught my surprise on this.

Subject: [ACQNET-L] Accessible Archives charging for systems upgrades?

Hi all,

I was surprised to find an invoice in my inbox this morning from Accessible Archives for a system upgrade for all tracking software and hardware. I checked our license agreement, and it does not say anything about ever being charged for such a thing. And, none of our other vendors charge us for systems upgrades. While I wait to hear back from them about the details of this charge, I would like to know a) if others are being charged this fee by Accessible Archives and b) if you have ever been charged by a vendor for a systems upgrade.

I look forward to your comments!
