Reading these numbers

At current lowest listed prices the 2 reagents for one craft of Petal Powder cost 30 gold. Most of that is Arathor's Spear - 6 at 4 gold each, 24 gold, 80.0% of the whole basket. Watch that one price and you have watched most of this recipe.

Break-even is 31 gold57 silver - below that listed price the craft loses gold once Blizzard’s 5% cut is taken. The crafted item’s lowest listed price is 2 gold40 silver, which does not clear it.

The crafted item currently lists for less than its reagents cost: −27 gold60 silver before fees, and the Auction House would still take 12 silver of a sale, so a craft loses 27 gold72 silver at these prices. At current listings, buying the crafted item costs less than making it. That is an estimated -92.4% return on the gold you put into reagents.

Listing depth right now: 3,631 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.
