We have a IPv6 peer with Cogent, in St. Louis, no extra fees were charged.  
Just a FYI.

We canceled some 10GbE Cogent circuits because of Cogent's refusal to provision 
IPv6 without adding extra fees, and I expressed my reasoning well in advance of 
canceling the first one.  I have been told that they have now eliminated the 
special fee for North American customers, but just two weeks ago I heard about 
this IPv6 surcharge stupidity still being applied to Cogent's customers in 
Europe.

If you want to change your vendor, sometimes you have to change your vendor.
