Reading these numbers

At current lowest listed prices the 3 reagents for one craft of Ironclaw Weightstone cost 72 gold68 silver. Most of that is Core Alloy - 1 at 44 gold50 silver each, 44 gold50 silver, 61.2% of the whole basket. Watch that one price and you have watched most of this recipe.

Break-even is 76 gold50 silver per craft, 19 gold12 silver per item at 4 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 3 gold50 silver, which does not clear it.

The crafted item currently lists for less than its reagents cost: −58 gold68 silver before fees, and the Auction House would still take 70 silver of a sale, so a craft loses 59 gold38 silver at these prices. At current listings, buying the crafted item costs less than making it. That is an estimated -81.7% return on the gold you put into reagents.

Listing depth right now: 278 units across 27 auctions region-wide. Depth separates a market price from a single asking figure, but listings are not sales, so read it alongside the estimate.
