Reading these numbers
At current lowest listed prices the 1 reagent for one craft of Prismatic Scale cost 214 gold40 silver.
Break-even is 225 gold68 silver - below that listed price the craft loses gold once Blizzard’s 5% cut is taken. The crafted item’s lowest listed price is 9 gold57 silver, which does not clear it.
The crafted item currently lists for less than its reagents cost: −204 gold83 silver before fees, and the Auction House would still take 47 silver85 copper of a sale, so a craft loses 205 gold30 silver at these prices. At current listings, buying the crafted item costs less than making it. That is an estimated -95.8% return on the gold you put into reagents.
Listing depth right now: 4,703 units across 41 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 →
