Reading these numbers

At current lowest listed prices the 3 reagents for one craft of Riverside Picnic cost 1 gold97 silver. Most of that is Cerulean Spinefish - 1 at 1 gold29 silver each, 1 gold29 silver, 65.5% of the whole basket. Watch that one price and you have watched most of this recipe.

Break-even is 2 gold7 silver per craft, 51 silver84 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 4 gold, which clears it.

At that listed price the gross margin before fees is 14 gold3 silver; the Auction House would keep 80 silver of a sale, leaving 13 gold23 silver. That is an estimated 671.6% return on the gold you put into reagents, after the cut has taken 5.7% of the gross.

Listing depth right now: 472 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.

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 →
