- Reagent cost (lowest listed)
- 30 gold16 silver
- Crafted item, lowest listed price
- 489 gold
- Auction House cut (5%)

- Evidence: 10 current listings holding 75 units of the crafted item in the US region. We see listings, not sales, so how many sell and at what price is unknown.
- Outlier: the crafted item’s lowest listing is 217 times its 30-day median of 2 gold25 silver, so this estimate rests on a listing far above its usual level.

Reading these numbers
At current lowest listed prices the 3 reagents for one craft of Frost Protection Potion cost 30 gold16 silver. Most of that is Goldthorn - 1 at 16 gold55 silver each, 16 gold55 silver, 54.9% of the whole basket. Watch that one price and you have watched most of this recipe.
Break-even is 31 gold74 silver - below that listed price the craft loses gold once Blizzard’s 5% cut is taken. The crafted item’s lowest listed price is 489 gold, which clears it.
At that listed price the gross margin before fees is 458 gold84 silver; the Auction House would keep 24 gold45 silver of a sale, leaving 434 gold39 silver. That is an estimated 1440.3% return on the gold you put into reagents, after the cut has taken 5.3% of the gross.
Listing depth right now: 75 units across 10 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 →
