Reading these numbers
At current lowest listed prices the 2 reagents for one craft of Goldthorn Tea cost 17 gold84 silver. Most of that is Goldthorn - 1 at 17 gold80 silver each, 17 gold80 silver, 99.8% of the whole basket. Watch that one price and you have watched most of this recipe.
Break-even is 18 gold77 silver per craft, 4 gold69 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 129 gold, which clears it.
At that listed price the gross margin before fees is 498 gold16 silver; the Auction House would keep 25 gold80 silver of a sale, leaving 472 gold36 silver. That is an estimated 2647.8% return on the gold you put into reagents, after the cut has taken 5.2% of the gross.
Listing depth right now: 174 units across 15 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 →
