Reading these numbers

At current lowest listed prices the 2 reagents for one craft of Mantid Elixir cost 3 gold1 silver. Most of that is Green Tea Leaf - 2 at 1 gold50 silver each, 3 gold, 99.7% of the whole basket. Watch that one price and you have watched most of this recipe.

Break-even is 3 gold16 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 gold10 silver, which does not clear it.

The crafted item currently lists for less than its reagents cost: −1 gold91 silver before fees, and the Auction House would still take 5 silver50 copper of a sale, so a craft loses 1 gold96 silver at these prices. At current listings, buying the crafted item costs less than making it. That is an estimated -65.3% return on the gold you put into reagents.

Listing depth right now: 809 units across 23 auctions region-wide. Depth separates a market price from a single asking figure, but listings are not sales, so read it alongside the estimate.
