Crafting estimate at current listings
At current lowest listed prices one craft shows an estimated profit of 14 silver, but the crafted item’s listing is far from its 30-day median (see below).
- Reagent cost (lowest listed)
- 27 gold22 silver
- Crafted item, lowest listed price
- 28 gold80 silver
- Auction House cut (5%)
- 1 gold44 silver
- Estimated profit at that listed price
- 14 silver (+0%)
- Evidence: 13 current listings holding 792 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 3.7 times its 30-day median of 7 gold70 silver, so this estimate rests on a listing far above its usual level.

Reading these numbers
At current lowest listed prices the 3 reagents for one craft of Catseye Elixir cost 27 gold22 silver. Most of that is Goldthorn - 1 at 17 gold98 silver each, 17 gold98 silver, 66.1% of the whole basket. Watch that one price and you have watched most of this recipe.
Break-even is 28 gold65 silver - below that listed price the craft loses gold once Blizzard’s 5% cut is taken. The crafted item’s lowest listed price is 28 gold80 silver, which clears it.
At that listed price the gross margin before fees is 1 gold58 silver; the Auction House would keep 1 gold44 silver of a sale, leaving 14 silver. That is an estimated 0.5% return on the gold you put into reagents, after the cut has taken 91.1% of the gross.
Listing depth right now: 792 units across 13 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 →
