Crafting estimate at current listings
No real market: too few listings for this price to mean anything yet.
- Reagent cost (lowest listed)
- 108 gold52 silver
- Crafted item, lowest listed price
- 1,999 gold95 silver
- Auction House cut (5%)
- 99 gold99 silver
- Estimated profit at that listed price
- 1,791 gold43 silver
No real market: only 3 units across 3 auctions region-wide. With this little supply the lowest listing is one asking price rather than a market rate, so treat the estimate above as arithmetic, not an opportunity; a buyer at that price is not established.
- Evidence: 3 current listings holding 3 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 76% below its 30-day median of 8,302 gold27 silver, so this estimate rests on a listing far below its usual level.

Reading these numbers
At current lowest listed prices the 1 reagent for one craft of Guardian's Shadow Spinel cost 108 gold52 silver.
Break-even is 114 gold23 silver - below that listed price the craft loses gold once Blizzard’s 5% cut is taken. The crafted item’s lowest listed price is 1,999 gold95 silver, which clears it.
At that listed price the gross margin before fees is 1,891 gold43 silver; the Auction House would keep 99 gold99 silver of a sale, leaving 1,791 gold43 silver. That is an estimated 1650.8% return on the gold you put into reagents, after the cut has taken 5.3% of the gross.
Listing depth right now: 3 units across 3 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 →
