Generally speaking you get the software that comes with the device. If you then need to upgrade the software it's a license cost i'm afraid. So you want a relatively new version of IOS on the switch.
To be honest it's a whole grey area really. Because the person who sells the kit may well have upgraded it without paying for the upgrade.
