Reading these numbers
At current lowest listed prices the 2 reagents for one craft of Enchanted Thorium Bar cost 5 gold9 silver. Most of that is Thorium Bar - 1 at 3 gold44 silver each, 3 gold44 silver, 67.6% of the whole basket. Watch that one price and you have watched most of this recipe.
Break-even is 5 gold35 silver - below that listed price the craft loses gold once Blizzard’s 5% cut is taken. The crafted item’s lowest listed price is 6 gold19 silver, which clears it.
At that listed price the gross margin before fees is 1 gold10 silver; the Auction House would keep 30 silver95 copper of a sale, leaving 79 silver5 copper. That is an estimated 15.5% return on the gold you put into reagents, after the cut has taken 28.1% of the gross.
Listing depth right now: 7,618 units across 70 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 →
