No experience with a second adoption either, but wanted to say our agency charges significantly less for an "identified adoption". That is, if we had found DS's birthmom ourselves through networking or whatever, we would have paid much lower fees.
Off the top of my head, I can't remember exact figures - I know for our non-identified adoption it was $18K total and I think for an identified adoption they charged an hourly rate for how much time the SW had to put in (for post placement visits, documents, etc).
So I would check with your agency and/or see if you can find another agency to handle the details for you....
