Got my C&R license.... do I owe $2.25?

It was waiting in the mail when we got back from two weeks at the beach yesterday, Saturday, August 25. I mailed the app. and check for $30 on June 22 and my check cleared June 27; so apparently BATF took the full 60-day period allowed by statute to issue a license or notify an applicant of denial. OTOH--Also included in my stack of mail were five packets of information BATF deems necessary that the collector must know; but each packet contained identical enclosures, and each packet was mailed at a cost of $6.45, for a total of $32.25. Tell me guys, do I owe the feds $2.25 or do they owe us all an explanation of why they wasted $25.80?
