Reading these numbers

At current lowest listed prices the 4 reagents for one craft of Flask of Blinding Light cost 27 gold15 silver. Most of that is Netherbloom - 7 at 1 gold75 silver each, 12 gold25 silver, 45.1% of the whole basket. Watch that one price and you have watched most of this recipe.

Break-even is 28 gold57 silver per craft, 14 gold28 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 35 gold22 silver, which clears it.

At that listed price the gross margin before fees is 43 gold29 silver; the Auction House would keep 3 gold52 silver of a sale, leaving 39 gold76 silver. That is an estimated 146.5% return on the gold you put into reagents, after the cut has taken 8.1% of the gross.

Listing depth right now: 824 units across 13 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 →
