Reading these numbers

At current lowest listed prices the 3 reagents for one craft of Cobrahide Leg Armor cost 1,868 gold. Most of that is Primal Air - 4 at 340 gold each, 1,360 gold, 72.8% of the whole basket. Watch that one price and you have watched most of this recipe.

Break-even is 1,966 gold31 silver - below that listed price the craft loses gold once Blizzard’s 5% cut is taken. The crafted item’s lowest listed price is 2,398 gold61 silver, which clears it.

At that listed price the gross margin before fees is 530 gold61 silver; the Auction House would keep 119 gold93 silver of a sale, leaving 410 gold67 silver. That is an estimated 22.0% return on the gold you put into reagents, after the cut has taken 22.6% of the gross.

Listing depth right now: 68 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 →
