I dont mind just taking the partial yr but I will me dambed if I am going to pay extra for the partial yr.
That's an easy fix -
Why not renew a few months early? It's going to count for the next year anyhow so make it easy on yourself and send your dues ahead of time rather than wait.
The late fee is for the extra postage and handling to get your printed matter sent out to you. When they don't go bulk rate from the print shop that means someone has to purchase mailers and higher rate postage and mail the items to you custom. They can't go bulk rate at that point because it's one or two items rather than 1600 items.
