Haphazardly Tethered Wires
Reagent cost, the crafted item's lowest listed price and the estimated profit at that price, from current US Auction House listings - recalculated every snapshot.
Crafting estimate at current listings
At current lowest listed prices the reagents cost more than the crafted item lists for: an estimated loss of 17 gold6 silver per craft.
- Reagent cost (lowest listed)
- 17 gold79 silver
- Crafted item, lowest listed price (each)
- 38 silver
- Items per craft

- Listed value of one craft
- 76 silver
- Auction House cut (5%)

- Estimated profit at that listed price
- −17 gold6 silver (-96%)
- Evidence: 31 current listings holding 1,370 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 1 gold57 silver, so this estimate rests on a listing far below its usual level.
- Items per craft: the game’s spell data creates 2 per craft, so the listed value of one craft is that many times the lowest listed price.
- Quality: Haphazardly Tethered Wires 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.

Haphazardly Tethered Wires: lowest listed price, last 30 days
The current lowest listing is 76% below 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 2 reagents for one craft of Haphazardly Tethered Wires cost 17 gold79 silver. Most of that is Rousing Earth - 4 at 2 gold88 silver each, 11 gold52 silver, 64.8% of the whole basket. Watch that one price and you have watched most of this recipe.
Break-even is 18 gold72 silver per craft, 9 gold36 silver per item at 2 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 38 silver, which does not clear it.
The crafted item currently lists for less than its reagents cost: −17 gold3 silver before fees, and the Auction House would still take 3 silver80 copper of a sale, so a craft loses 17 gold6 silver at these prices. At current listings, buying the crafted item costs less than making it. That is an estimated -95.9% return on the gold you put into reagents.
Listing depth right now: 1,370 units across 31 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 →
