There's no fee if you get it back before 28 days overdue. Costs nothing. Granted after that suddenly it's the cost of the item. Works for me, at least. I've always been terrible with things that have late fees (in fact I had some late fees at that library from the previous system). But I've had no issues or fees since they changed to this model, despite continuing to be late in my returns (just not 28 days late).
