The cost is only there if you transfer out of aws. Something like glacier will have a retrieval time on the order of hours or days.

Glacier Deep Archive does charge for retrievals at $0.02 per GB and additional $0.01 per 1000 such requests (both of which are $0.00 for Standard S3). PUT, LIST, DELETE are at $0.05 per 1000 requests, 10x the Standard S3 rates.
