  • Evidence: 5 current listings holding 201 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 10 times its 30-day median of 19 gold, so this estimate rests on a listing far above its usual level.
