At that listed price the gross margin before fees is 3 gold87 silver; the Auction House would keep 21 silver of a sale, leaving 3 gold66 silver. That is an estimated 1109.1% return on the gold you put into reagents, after the cut has taken 5.4% of the gross.
Listing depth right now: 121 units across 9 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 →
