Reading these numbers

At current lowest listed prices the 2 reagents for one craft of Probably Protein cost 1 gold50 silver. Most of that is Conveniently Packaged Ingredients - 2 at 68 silver each, 1 gold36 silver, 90.7% of the whole basket. Watch that one price and you have watched most of this recipe.

Break-even is 1 gold57 silver per craft, 39 silver47 copper per item at 4 items a craft - below that listed price the craft loses gold once Blizzard’s 5% cut is taken. The crafted item’s lowest listed price is 25 silver, which does not clear it.

The crafted item currently lists for less than its reagents cost: −50 silver before fees, and the Auction House would still take 5 silver of a sale, so a craft loses 55 silver at these prices. At current listings, buying the crafted item costs less than making it. That is an estimated -36.7% return on the gold you put into reagents.

Listing depth right now: 414 units across 26 auctions region-wide. Depth separates a market price from a single asking figure, but listings are not sales, so read it alongside the estimate.
