No real market: only 5 units across 3 auctions region-wide. With this little supply the lowest listing is one asking price rather than a market rate, so treat the estimate above as arithmetic, not an opportunity; a buyer at that price is not established.
- Evidence: 3 current listings holding 5 units of the crafted item in the US region. We see listings, not sales, so how many sell and at what price is unknown.
- Items per craft: the game’s spell data creates 2 per craft, so the listed value of one craft is that many times the lowest listed price.
- Quality: Endless Stack of Needles comes in 3 quality ranks. This is the base comparison, rank 1 reagents against the rank 1 result; your skill and the reagents’ ranks decide the rank you actually get, which this estimate does not model. Each rank’s lowest listing is in the rank table below.
- Not included: the recipe also accepts 2 finishing reagent slots, which are not required and are left out of the cost.

Endless Stack of Needles quality ranks
Endless Stack of Needles comes in 3 quality ranks, and each rank is its own item on the Auction House. The recipe’s base crafting difficulty is 425.
| Rank | Item | Lowest listed price | Listings (US) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Rank 1 | 177 gold74 silver | 3 listings, 5 units | |
| Rank 2 | 5 gold50 silver | 3 listings, 10 units | |
| Rank 3 | 25 gold22 silver | 5 listings, 115 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 and rank 3, so a craft that comes out at a higher rank is worth less at today’s listings, not more.

Reading these numbers
At current lowest listed prices the 3 reagents for one craft of Endless Stack of Needles cost 59 gold76 silver. Most of that is Greased-Up Gears - 1 at 40 gold each, 40 gold, 66.9% of the whole basket. Watch that one price and you have watched most of this recipe.
Break-even is 62 gold90 silver per craft, 31 gold45 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 177 gold74 silver, which clears it.
At that listed price the gross margin before fees is 295 gold72 silver; the Auction House would keep 17 gold77 silver of a sale, leaving 277 gold94 silver. That is an estimated 465.1% return on the gold you put into reagents, after the cut has taken 6.0% of the gross.
Listing depth right now: 5 units across 3 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 →
