Pretty sure it's 10% of what you sell your item/s for 
Those are really big fees

Its basically having a OMM which is slightly longer, fees are fixed and is there when you need it most. OMM on sythe are not always there when you need them, but its sort of worth it. I dont know if im going to be setting it up any time soon. I am not sure if i want to
P.S: Thanks people

Though an OMM can in most cases be heavlily trusted, wich sites likes these never can - even if one seems to be better then many of its competitors.
The fee's are a tad steep I must agree, but the satisfaction of a successful trade and knowing the customer isn't going to chargeback/dispute is quite uplifting.
Say for example you're selling 1b RSGP directly from Paypal to Paypal, if 90% of your trades are successful meaning nobody charges back/unauthorized claim/etc, at 85 cents a million.
1b RSGP @ $0.85c/m = 850$
if 90% of your sales are successful, $850 x 90% = 765$
if you sell 1B RSGP through PA (With an average purchase amount of 50m/order, so 20 total orders)
1B @ $0.85c/m = 850$ x (1-.0999) = 765.09$ - (20 x 1.99) = 725.29$
725.29$/850$ = 85%, so if roughly 15% or more of your trades are being disputed, than it's better off using PA.

In all fairness with the recent offense from paypal against sellers accepting all there payments through gifts, more and more people are having to actually claim there sale as a sale of goods, which means paypal gets a percentage of there sale anyways, and still isn't that safe with the possibility of an unauthorized chargeback
With PA, they cover the paypal fees when they pay you, so if you subtract the paypal fees you would have incurred from the fees PA charges you, its not much difference. As some have said, with the volume of business that they get per day its likely they will not risk compromising that for a few hundred dollars in merchandise from you by scamming you. And it really does feel good to know 100% that when you make a sale, you will be able to do the trade quickly and the money is securely yours.
