Reading these numbers

At current lowest listed prices the 2 reagents for one craft of Black Fireflight cost 55 gold42 silver. Most of that is Everburning Blasting Powder - 2 at 25 gold41 silver each, 50 gold82 silver, 91.7% of the whole basket. Watch that one price and you have watched most of this recipe.

Break-even is 58 gold33 silver - below that listed price the craft loses gold once Blizzard’s 5% cut is taken. The crafted item’s lowest listed price is 25 gold, which does not clear it.

The crafted item currently lists for less than its reagents cost: 30 gold42 silver before fees, and the Auction House would still take 1 gold25 silver of a sale, so a craft loses 31 gold67 silver at these prices. At current listings, buying the crafted item costs less than making it. That is an estimated -57.1% return on the gold you put into reagents.

Listing depth right now: 181 units across 23 auctions region-wide. Depth separates a market price from a single asking figure, but listings are not sales, so read it alongside the estimate.
