Reading these numbers

At current lowest listed prices the 2 reagents for one craft of Highland Spirits cost 996 gold57 silver. Most of that is Highland Pomegranate - 1 at 996 gold56 silver each, 996 gold56 silver, 100.0% of the whole basket. Watch that one price and you have watched most of this recipe.

Break-even is 1,049 gold2 silver - below that listed price the craft loses gold once Blizzard’s 5% cut is taken. The crafted item’s lowest listed price is 65 gold, which does not clear it.

The crafted item currently lists for less than its reagents cost: −931 gold57 silver before fees, and the Auction House would still take 3 gold25 silver of a sale, so a craft loses 934 gold82 silver at these prices. At current listings, buying the crafted item costs less than making it. That is an estimated -93.8% return on the gold you put into reagents.
