Crafting estimate at current listings
No real market: too few listings for this price to mean anything yet.
- Reagent cost (lowest listed)
- 300 gold55 silver
- Crafted item, lowest listed price
- 49,999 gold94 silver
- Auction House cut (5%)
- 2,499 gold99 silver
- Estimated profit at that listed price

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: 1 current listing holding 5 units of the crafted item in the US region. We see listings, not sales, so how many sell and at what price is unknown.
- Quality: Contract: Dream Wardens comes in 3 quality ranks. This is the base comparison, rank 1 reagents against the rank 1 result; your skill and the reagents’ ranks decide the rank you actually get, which this estimate does not model. Each rank’s lowest listing is in the rank table below.
- Not included: the recipe also accepts 2 finishing reagent slots, which are not required and are left out of the cost.

Contract: Dream Wardens quality ranks

| Rank | Item | Lowest listed price | Listings (US) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Rank 1 | Contract: Dream Wardens | 49,999 gold94 silver | 1 listing, 5 units |

The crafting estimate above is the base comparison: rank 1 reagents against the rank 1 result. Your skill and the reagents’ ranks decide which rank a craft actually makes, so a higher rank is never priced against rank 1 reagents here. Right now rank 1 lists above rank 2, so a craft that comes out at a higher rank is worth less at today’s listings, not more.
Contract: Dream Wardens: lowest listed price, last 30 days
The current lowest listing is 11% above its 30-day median. Over these 30 days the lowest listing moved more than tenfold, so a single snapshot, including the one the estimate uses, can sit far from typical.

Reading these numbers
At current lowest listed prices the 3 reagents for one craft of Contract: Dream Wardens cost 300 gold55 silver. Most of that is Burnished Ink - 2 at 99 gold90 silver each, 199 gold80 silver, 66.5% of the whole basket. Watch that one price and you have watched most of this recipe.
Break-even is 316 gold36 silver - below that listed price the craft loses gold once Blizzard’s 5% cut is taken. The crafted item’s lowest listed price is 49,999 gold94 silver, which clears it.
At that listed price the gross margin before fees is 49,699 gold39 silver; the Auction House would keep 2,499 gold99 silver of a sale, leaving 47,199 gold39 silver. That is an estimated 15704.3% return on the gold you put into reagents, after the cut has taken 5.0% of the gross.
Listing depth right now: 5 units across 1 auction 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 →
