Reading these numbers

At current lowest listed prices the 2 reagents for one craft of Potion of Concentration cost 10 gold51 silver. Most of that is Azshara's Veil - 2 at 5 gold25 silver each, 10 gold50 silver, 99.9% of the whole basket. Watch that one price and you have watched most of this recipe.

Break-even is 11 gold6 silver - below that listed price the craft loses gold once Blizzard’s 5% cut is taken. The crafted item’s lowest listed price is 70 silver, which does not clear it.

The crafted item currently lists for less than its reagents cost: −9 gold81 silver before fees, and the Auction House would still take 3 silver50 copper of a sale, so a craft loses 9 gold84 silver at these prices. At current listings, buying the crafted item costs less than making it. That is an estimated -93.7% return on the gold you put into reagents.

Listing depth right now: 203 units across 15 auctions region-wide. Depth separates a market price from a single asking figure, but listings are not sales, so read it alongside the estimate.
