Crafting estimate at current listings

- Reagent cost (lowest listed)
- 9 gold57 silver
- Crafted item, lowest listed price
- 300 gold50 silver
- Auction House cut (5%)
- 15 gold2 silver
- Estimated profit at that listed price
- 275 gold90 silver (+2883%)
- Evidence: 6 current listings holding 41 units of the crafted item in the US region. We see listings, not sales, so how many sell and at what price is unknown.
- Outlier: the crafted item’s lowest listing is 3.0 times its 30-day median of 100 gold, so this estimate rests on a listing far above its usual level.

Reading these numbers
At current lowest listed prices the 1 reagent for one craft of Brilliant Cardinal Ruby cost 9 gold57 silver.
Break-even is 10 gold7 silver - below that listed price the craft loses gold once Blizzard’s 5% cut is taken. The crafted item’s lowest listed price is 300 gold50 silver, which clears it.
At that listed price the gross margin before fees is 290 gold93 silver; the Auction House would keep 15 gold2 silver of a sale, leaving 275 gold90 silver. That is an estimated 2883.0% return on the gold you put into reagents, after the cut has taken 5.2% of the gross.
Listing depth right now: 41 units across 6 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 →
