Reading these numbers

At current lowest listed prices the 2 reagents for one craft of Masterful Amber cost 11 gold49 silver. Most of that is Engraved Gemcutter - 1 at 7 gold50 silver each, 7 gold50 silver, 65.3% of the whole basket. Watch that one price and you have watched most of this recipe.

Break-even is 12 gold9 silver - below that listed price the craft loses gold once Blizzard’s 5% cut is taken. The crafted item’s lowest listed price is 5 gold30 silver, which does not clear it.

The crafted item currently lists for less than its reagents cost: −6 gold19 silver before fees, and the Auction House would still take 26 silver50 copper of a sale, so a craft loses 6 gold45 silver at these prices. At current listings, buying the crafted item costs less than making it. That is an estimated -56.2% return on the gold you put into reagents.

Listing depth right now: 297 units across 33 auctions region-wide. Depth separates a market price from a single asking figure, but listings are not sales, so read it alongside the estimate.
