There's no listing fee and they only take a $1 cut. So most of the money goes to the players selling. The way these things work is that most people don't buy anything, but a few people make several really expensive purchases. Say someone decides to buy their way into the best gear, and spend between $10 - $200 on each slot. Blizzard only makes $13 from this.
The real cut is the 15% they extract when you try to go to paypal... or else people buying extra blizzard products.
