Reading these numbers
At current lowest listed prices the 2 reagents for one craft of Medium Armor Kit cost 10 gold81 silver. Most of that is Medium Leather - 4 at 2 gold70 silver each, 10 gold80 silver, 99.9% of the whole basket. Watch that one price and you have watched most of this recipe.
Break-even is 11 gold37 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 gold1 silver, which does not clear it.
The crafted item currently lists for less than its reagents cost: −9 gold80 silver before fees, and the Auction House would still take 5 silver5 copper of a sale, so a craft loses 9 gold85 silver at these prices. At current listings, buying the crafted item costs less than making it. That is an estimated -91.1% return on the gold you put into reagents.
Listing depth right now: 46 units across 13 auctions region-wide. Depth separates a market price from a single asking figure, but listings are not sales, so read it alongside the estimate.
Costs use each reagent’s lowest listed price; the estimate is the crafted item’s lowest listed price, times the items one craft makes, minus those reagents and Blizzard’s 5% sale cut. Listings are asking prices, not sales. Recalculated every snapshot and left blank rather than guessed when a price is missing. How we estimate crafting profit →
