My question is, has anyone heard of this? And what is a MUCH cheaper way of getting the domains back? It would cost me $4000 to get my 20 domains back, that seemskind of outrageous.

I know Evan of XPays, and Taboo, and a few other here can probably have some answers for me.
Look at it this way. Lets say you paid for 2 years of registration. Well the registrar delivered on their end. Now that you have let the domains expire, they are not yours anymore. The fact that the registrar gives you a grace period in which you can renew your domains even after they have expired, is a courtesy. In this case, that courtesy costs $200 per domain.
