Reading these numbers
At current lowest listed prices the 3 reagents for one craft of Free Action Potion cost 17 gold71 silver. Most of that is Blackmouth Oil - 2 at 7 gold each, 14 gold, 79.1% of the whole basket. Watch that one price and you have watched most of this recipe.
Break-even is 18 gold64 silver - below that listed price the craft loses gold once Blizzard’s 5% cut is taken. The crafted item’s lowest listed price is 25 gold99 silver, which clears it.
At that listed price the gross margin before fees is 8 gold28 silver; the Auction House would keep 1 gold29 silver of a sale, leaving 6 gold98 silver. That is an estimated 39.4% return on the gold you put into reagents, after the cut has taken 15.7% of the gross.
Listing depth right now: 1,101 units across 21 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 →
