Free Books from Fictionwise no-so-free?

25 different and free ebooks:
http://www.fictionwise.com/eBooks/freebooks.htm?cache

(I have yet to download one but will soon)

Are these ones really free? I went to the link, selected a few of the titles and then was prompted for a way to pay $.50 since my order was less than $5.00.

Anyone else try this and get them for "free"?

$.50 is added to any purchase under $5 at Fictionwise if you choose PayPal. Try again but click on the button that says "check out" to the right of "Micropay" and see if that ammends the problem.
