Crafting estimate at current listings
No real market: too few listings for this price to mean anything yet.
- Reagent cost (lowest listed)
- 297 gold75 silver
- Crafted item, lowest listed price

- Auction House cut (5%)
- 246 gold38 silver
- Estimated profit at that listed price

No real market: only 8 units across 8 auctions region-wide. With this little supply the lowest listing is one asking price rather than a market rate, so treat the estimate above as arithmetic, not an opportunity; a buyer at that price is not established.
- Evidence: 8 current listings holding 8 units of the crafted item in the US region. We see listings, not sales, so how many sell and at what price is unknown.

Reading these numbers
At current lowest listed prices the 3 reagents for one craft of Sapphire Spellthread cost 297 gold75 silver. Most of that is Eternal Fire - 4 at 60 gold14 silver each, 240 gold56 silver, 80.8% of the whole basket. Watch that one price and you have watched most of this recipe.
Break-even is 313 gold42 silver - below that listed price the craft loses gold once Blizzard’s 5% cut is taken. The crafted item’s lowest listed price is 4,927 gold64 silver, which clears it.
At that listed price the gross margin before fees is 4,629 gold89 silver; the Auction House would keep 246 gold38 silver of a sale, leaving 4,383 gold50 silver. That is an estimated 1472.2% return on the gold you put into reagents, after the cut has taken 5.3% of the gross.
Listing depth right now: 8 units across 8 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 →
