Reading these numbers

At current lowest listed prices the 1 reagent for one craft of Light Armor Kit cost 2 gold4 silver.

Break-even is 2 gold14 silver - below that listed price the craft loses gold once Blizzard’s 5% cut is taken. The crafted item’s lowest listed price is 1 gold19 silver, which does not clear it.

The crafted item currently lists for less than its reagents cost: −85 silver before fees, and the Auction House would still take 5 silver95 copper of a sale, so a craft loses 90 silver95 copper at these prices. At current listings, buying the crafted item costs less than making it. That is an estimated -44.6% return on the gold you put into reagents.

Listing depth right now: 642 units across 18 auctions region-wide. Depth separates a market price from a single asking figure, but listings are not sales, so read it alongside the estimate.
