So in plain English you think that registrars should be getting pricing from registries via EPP??

Did I understand you correctly?

Subject: [provreg] Registry Fee Extension for the Extensible Provisioning       Protocol

Dear colleagues,

As the I-D submission window is closed, I am unable to submit this to
the IETF, but I plan to do so once the submissions re-open.

https://raw.github.com/centralnic/epp-fee-extension/master/draft-brown-epp-fees.txt

I would like to request that this be considered for adoption by the
eppext group.

From the introduction:

Historically, domain name registries have applied a simple fee structure
for billable transactions, namely a basic unit price applied to domain
<create>, <renew>, <transfer> and RGP restore commands.  Given the
relatively small number of EPP servers that EPP clients have been
required to connect to, it has generally been the case that client
operators have been able to obtain details of these fees out-of-band by
contacting the server operators.

Given the imminent expansion of the DNS namespace, and the proliferation
of novel business models, it is now desirable to provide a method for
EPP clients to query EPP servers for the fees associated with certain
commands and specific objects.

This document describes an extension mapping for version 1.0 of the
Extensible Provisioning Protocol (EPP) [RFC5730].  This EPP mapping
provides a mechanism by which EPP clients may query the fees associated
with various billable transactions.

You can fork the draft and push changes to me from here:
