It's on a sliding scale. There was a big fuss when they changed the rates recently, and although they haven't officially published the new rates, they've been worked out below by Koltbiz.

Don't be lazy people, I just tested some listings to see what the new fees were.

Here are the results:

$5 -> 10%
$25 -> 10%
$75 -> 9.5%
$125 -> 9%
$175 -> 8.5%
$225 -> 8%
$275 -> 7.5%
$375 -> 7%
$500 -> 6.25%
$750 -> 5.30%
$1000 -> 4.75%
$1500 -> 4.25%
+$2500 -> 4%

The calculations were made by (POSTcomm - PREcomm)*0.01 = %

Koltbiz

Hope that helps!
