I suppose the company could have been more upfront about the costs 8 years ago. They probably should have just charged you for it 8 years ago. The invoice from '07 in the pic mentions something about "terms on the reverse side of this agreement". Does it say anything there about paying for those items?
In my mind, they installed what you needed to use a tank. They either take it back, or you can buy it. I guess I don't understand why you expect them to give you the pipe, risers, and regulator without paying for it. (other than your surprise 8 years later) I'm assuming you will use them with the new tank?
I also can't see where they charged you for the labor, just the materials. I think '07 invoice lists 2.5 hours of labor@$75/hour (or is it 25 hours?). That would be another $187 dollars. So, if you aren't having to bury the line yourself and put it together, it sounds like you came out ahead.
Personally, if I was going to continue to use those parts, I would pay for them. If they are specific to the old tank, or unusable for the new tank, I would dig them up and return them, and then bury my new stuff in the hole I was going to need to dig anyway. It sucks to be surprised, but I expect to pay for things. My two "non-lawyer" cents.

But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
