Earthshine Scales quality ranks

| Rank | Item | Lowest listed price | Listings (US) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Rank 1 | Earthshine Scales | 254 gold | 15 listings, 126 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.

The current lowest listing is 6% below 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 Earthshine Scales cost 267 gold47 silver. Most of that is Awakened Frost - 1 at 174 gold99 silver each, 174 gold99 silver, 65.4% of the whole basket. Watch that one price and you have watched most of this recipe.
Break-even is 281 gold54 silver per craft, 140 gold77 silver per item at 2 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 254 gold, which clears it.
At that listed price the gross margin before fees is 240 gold53 silver; the Auction House would keep 25 gold40 silver of a sale, leaving 215 gold13 silver. That is an estimated 80.4% return on the gold you put into reagents, after the cut has taken 10.6% of the gross.
Listing depth right now: 126 units across 15 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 →
