Thin market: the crafted item’s lowest listing comes from very few current listings and sits far out of line with reagent cost. Treat this estimate as unverified until more listings accrue.

  • Evidence: 9 current listings holding 460 units of the crafted item in the US region. We see listings, not sales, so how many sell and at what price is unknown.
  • Items per craft: the game’s spell data creates 5 per craft, so the listed value of one craft is that many times the lowest listed price.

Break-even is 5 gold5 silver per craft, 1 gold1 silver per item at 5 items a craft - below that listed price the craft loses gold once Blizzard’s 5% cut is taken. The crafted item’s lowest listed price is 50 gold, which clears it.

At that listed price the gross margin before fees is 245 gold20 silver; the Auction House would keep 12 gold50 silver of a sale, leaving 232 gold70 silver. That is an estimated 4847.9% return on the gold you put into reagents, after the cut has taken 5.1% of the gross.
