- Evidence: 9 current listings holding 108 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 11 times its 30-day median of 45 silver, so this estimate rests on a listing far above 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.

Reading these numbers
At current lowest listed prices the 1 reagent for one craft of Hot Buttered Trout cost 239 gold99 silver.
Break-even is 252 gold62 silver per craft, 126 gold31 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 5 gold12 silver, which does not clear it.
The crafted item currently lists for less than its reagents cost: −229 gold75 silver before fees, and the Auction House would still take 51 silver20 copper of a sale, so a craft loses 230 gold26 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: 108 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 →
