Crafting estimate at current listings

At current lowest listed prices one craft shows an estimated profit of 17 gold60 silver, but the crafted item’s listing is far from its 30-day median (see below).

Reagent cost (lowest listed): 6 gold15 silver
Crafted item, lowest listed price (each): 5 gold
Items per craft: 5
Listed value of one craft: 25 gold
Auction House cut (5%): 1 gold25 silver
Estimated profit at that listed price: 17 gold60 silver (+286%)

Evidence: 12 current listings holding 302 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 4.0 times its 30-day median of 1 gold25 silver, so this estimate rests on a listing far above its usual level.
Items per craft: the game’s spell data creates 5 per craft, so the listed value of one craft is that many times the lowest listed price.

Reading these numbers

At current lowest listed prices the 2 reagents for one craft of Deep-Fried Mossgill cost 6 gold15 silver. Most of that is Mossgill Perch - 5 at 1 gold10 silver each, 5 gold50 silver, 89.4% of the whole basket. Watch that one price and you have watched most of this recipe.

Break-even is 6 gold47 silver per craft, 1 gold29 silver per item at 5 items a craft - below that listed price the craft loses gold once Blizzard’s 5% cut is taken. The crafted item’s lowest listed price is 5 gold, which clears it.

At that listed price the gross margin before fees is 18 gold85 silver; the Auction House would keep 1 gold25 silver of a sale, leaving 17 gold60 silver. That is an estimated 286.2% return on the gold you put into reagents, after the cut has taken 6.6% of the gross.

Listing depth right now: 302 units across 12 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 →
