You will need to reclaim the bag for customs clearance when entering the US, and the hand it off to B6 before proceeding. Either there, or at the gate, your bag fee will most likely be collected.
Interesting. I have gotten around bag fees before by having a bag tag. Was that luck?

I always assumed the fee is paid to get you a bag tag. Once you have that, they assume payment is made. No?
