At that listed price the gross margin before fees is 8 gold99 silver; the Auction House would keep 6 gold74 silver of a sale, leaving 2 gold24 silver. That is an estimated 1.8% return on the gold you put into reagents, after the cut has taken 75.1% of the gross.
Listing depth right now: 3,921 units across 40 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 →
