The crafted item currently lists for less than its reagents cost: −344 gold13 silver before fees, and the Auction House would still take 43 silver50 copper of a sale, so a craft loses 344 gold56 silver at these prices. At current listings, buying the crafted item costs less than making it. That is an estimated -97.7% return on the gold you put into reagents.
Listing depth right now: 773 units across 36 auctions region-wide. Depth separates a market price from a single asking figure, but listings are not sales, so read it alongside the estimate.
Costs use each reagent’s lowest listed price; the estimate is the crafted item’s lowest listed price, times the items one craft makes, minus those reagents and Blizzard’s 5% sale cut. Listings are asking prices, not sales. Recalculated every snapshot and left blank rather than guessed when a price is missing. How we estimate crafting profit →
