No real market: only 9 units across 1 auction 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: 1 current listing holding 9 units of the crafted item in the US region. We see listings, not sales, so how many sell and at what price is unknown.

At that listed price the gross margin before fees is 79 gold94 silver; the Auction House would keep 4 gold29 silver of a sale, leaving 75 gold64 silver. That is an estimated 1260.7% return on the gold you put into reagents, after the cut has taken 5.4% of the gross.
