It depends on your domain registrar. Generally what they do is provide a 15 day grace period before which you have to renew your domain. If you have not, then the domain registrar will either continue to own the domain (and show ads) or de-register. So it depends on when the registrar de-registers the domain. If it is not de-registered, then that domain can be purchased only from that registrar.
