You can find sales figures on the site, so it should be easy to extrapolate from there.

Note that until you've made a lot of sales, Envato takes almost 50% as commission.

I did some ballpark numbers looking at the stuff you mentioned, and it seems like that 50% just eats away any real benefits the site gives. Anyone know why they charge so much?

Because they can. It's not necessarily a bad thing that they do take such a large percentage however. The more money they make, the more economical it is for them to advertise & invest in the platform. More advertisement & investment means more buyers. So for the creators on codecanyon, themeforest, etc, the money they give up in sales is hopefully for the purpose of more sales.
