Reading these numbers

At current lowest listed prices the 1 reagent for one craft of Precise Primordial Ruby cost 5 gold.

Break-even is 5 gold26 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 gold40 silver, which does not clear it.

The crafted item currently lists for less than its reagents cost: 3 gold60 silver before fees, and the Auction House would still take 7 silver of a sale, so a craft loses 3 gold67 silver at these prices. At current listings, buying the crafted item costs less than making it. That is an estimated -73.4% return on the gold you put into reagents.

Listing depth right now: 101 units across 12 auctions region-wide. Depth separates a market price from a single asking figure, but listings are not sales, so read it alongside the estimate.
