Reading these numbers

At current lowest listed prices the 1 reagent for one craft of Lesser Rune of Warding cost 19 gold48 silver.

Break-even is 20 gold50 silver - below that listed price the craft loses gold once Blizzard’s 5% cut is taken. The crafted item’s lowest listed price is 47 silver, which does not clear it.

The crafted item currently lists for less than its reagents cost: 19 gold1 silver before fees, and the Auction House would still take 2 silver35 copper of a sale, so a craft loses 19 gold3 silver at these prices. At current listings, buying the crafted item costs less than making it. That is an estimated -97.7% return on the gold you put into reagents.

Listing depth right now: 79 units across 11 auctions region-wide. Depth separates a market price from a single asking figure, but listings are not sales, so read it alongside the estimate.
