Reading these numbers

At current lowest listed prices the 2 reagents for one craft of Glyph of Crimson Banish cost 126 gold7 silver. Most of that is Jadefire Ink - 3 at 42 gold2 silver each, 126 gold6 silver, 100.0% of the whole basket. Watch that one price and you have watched most of this recipe.

Break-even is 132 gold70 silver - below that listed price the craft loses gold once Blizzard’s 5% cut is taken. The crafted item’s lowest listed price is 44 gold, which does not clear it.

The crafted item currently lists for less than its reagents cost: 82 gold7 silver before fees, and the Auction House would still take 2 gold20 silver of a sale, so a craft loses 84 gold27 silver at these prices. At current listings, buying the crafted item costs less than making it. That is an estimated -66.8% return on the gold you put into reagents.

Listing depth right now: 787 units across 37 auctions region-wide. Depth separates a market price from a single asking figure, but listings are not sales, so read it alongside the estimate.
