I only deal with salaries over 60k now and charge between 12-18%.

Mmm...the days when commission was more than twice my basic are long gone but I still enjoy the recruiting side...we work on similar percentages but much lower salary levels so our billings are an awful lot less than yours LOL. We used to make up for it in volume though but every placement is a fight now....more and more agencies offering flat fees and driving commercial recruitment down....
