Reading these numbers

At current lowest listed prices the 2 reagents for one craft of Relic of the Past IV cost 78 gold16 silver. Most of that is Luminous Flux - 8 at 8 gold78 silver each, 70 gold24 silver, 89.9% of the whole basket. Watch that one price and you have watched most of this recipe.

Break-even is 82 gold27 silver - below that listed price the craft loses gold once Blizzard’s 5% cut is taken. The crafted item’s lowest listed price is 19 gold80 silver, which does not clear it.

The crafted item currently lists for less than its reagents cost: 58 gold36 silver before fees, and the Auction House would still take 99 silver of a sale, so a craft loses 59 gold35 silver at these prices. At current listings, buying the crafted item costs less than making it. That is an estimated -75.9% return on the gold you put into reagents.

Listing depth right now: 472 units across 40 auctions region-wide. Depth separates a market price from a single asking figure, but listings are not sales, so read it alongside the estimate.
