Reading these numbers
At current lowest listed prices the 4 reagents for one craft of Eternal Belt Buckle cost 133 gold59 silver. Most of that is Saronite Bar - 4 at 17 gold93 silver each, 71 gold72 silver, 53.7% of the whole basket. Watch that one price and you have watched most of this recipe.
Break-even is 140 gold62 silver - below that listed price the craft loses gold once Blizzard’s 5% cut is taken. The crafted item’s lowest listed price is 150 gold, which clears it.
At that listed price the gross margin before fees is 16 gold41 silver; the Auction House would keep 7 gold50 silver of a sale, leaving 8 gold91 silver. That is an estimated 6.7% return on the gold you put into reagents, after the cut has taken 45.7% of the gross.
Listing depth right now: 63 units across 8 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 →
