I ran into this in the process of posting a job on a particularly targeted site. Seems like a good idea for some people, and I think they're right that ads in general are often viewed negatively, but job ads maybe a positive.
It looks like they handle everything including payment processing and take a 50% cut for their effort. Seems more than fair for their apparent target audience.

Got half way through the signup process before finding out it was only for the US :(
Would be nice if this information was listed somewhere earlier.

I just installed wpjobads to our Wordpress blog which doesn't have the 50% cut but was a $50 license. Our site gets 50k PV in a localized niche and we are hoping to charge at least 10-25$ per ad.
If it really is a niche site, I would charge much more for an ad.
Nearly useless single data point:
I just stopped in my tracks today posting an ad on a site that wanted $99. Had they asked $25 I would've gone ahead.
I have no idea what their readership is like, and I didn't care enough to bother figuring out if it was worth it. I was willing to chuck $25 without thinking about it if for no other reason than to support the site. $99 - for me - was beyond what I felt like wasting today.

Fair enough, but I think people often don't realize how much more a niche audience is worth over an unqualified, general interest audience.
We want to see how it goes, if there is a lot of demand we will increase. It is an NYC based art blog: artobserved.com
