Reading these numbers

At current lowest listed prices the 4 reagents for one craft of Masterful Emerald cost 2,029 gold90 silver. Most of that is Crushed Gemstones - 20 at 99 gold each, 1,980 gold, 97.5% of the whole basket. Watch that one price and you have watched most of this recipe.

Break-even is 2,136 gold73 silver - below that listed price the craft loses gold once Blizzard’s 5% cut is taken. The crafted item’s lowest listed price is 544 gold70 silver, which does not clear it.

The crafted item currently lists for less than its reagents cost: −1,485 gold20 silver before fees, and the Auction House would still take 27 gold23 silver of a sale, so a craft loses 1,512 gold43 silver at these prices. At current listings, buying the crafted item costs less than making it. That is an estimated -74.5% return on the gold you put into reagents.

Listing depth right now: 33 units across 5 auctions region-wide. Depth separates a market price from a single asking figure, but listings are not sales, so read it alongside the estimate.
