Reading these numbers

At current lowest listed prices the 4 reagents for one craft of Greater Flask of the Currents cost 204 gold96 silver. Most of that is Zin'anthid - 20 at 8 gold each, 160 gold, 78.1% of the whole basket. Watch that one price and you have watched most of this recipe.

Break-even is 215 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 275 gold43 silver, which clears it.

At that listed price the gross margin before fees is 70 gold47 silver; the Auction House would keep 13 gold77 silver of a sale, leaving 56 gold69 silver. That is an estimated 27.7% return on the gold you put into reagents, after the cut has taken 19.5% of the gross.

Listing depth right now: 653 units across 9 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 →
