- Evidence: 74 current listings holding 4,547 units of the crafted item in the US region. We see listings, not sales, so how many sell and at what price is unknown.
- Items per craft: the game’s spell data creates 4 per craft, so the listed value of one craft is that many times the lowest listed price.
- Quality: Gilded Vial comes in 3 quality ranks. This is the base comparison, rank 1 reagents against the rank 1 result; your skill and the reagents’ ranks decide the rank you actually get, which this estimate does not model. Each rank’s lowest listing is in the rank table below.
- Not included: the recipe also accepts 2 finishing reagent slots, which are not required and are left out of the cost.

Gilded Vial: lowest listed price, last 30 days
The current lowest listing is 7% above its 30-day median. Over these 30 days the lowest listing moved more than tenfold, so a single snapshot, including the one the estimate uses, can sit far from typical.

Reading these numbers
At current lowest listed prices the 3 reagents for one craft of Gilded Vial cost 32 gold56 silver. Most of that is Crushed Gemstones - 3 at 10 gold1 silver each, 30 gold3 silver, 92.2% of the whole basket. Watch that one price and you have watched most of this recipe.
Break-even is 34 gold27 silver per craft, 8 gold56 silver per item at 4 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 1 gold55 silver, which does not clear it.
The crafted item currently lists for less than its reagents cost: −26 gold36 silver before fees, and the Auction House would still take 31 silver of a sale, so a craft loses 26 gold67 silver at these prices. At current listings, buying the crafted item costs less than making it. That is an estimated -81.9% return on the gold you put into reagents.
Listing depth right now: 4,547 units across 74 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 →
