Reading these numbers

At current lowest listed prices the 3 reagents for one craft of Sapphire Spellthread cost 340 gold23 silver. Most of that is Eternal Fire - 4 at 67 gold81 silver each, 271 gold24 silver, 79.7% of the whole basket. Watch that one price and you have watched most of this recipe.

Break-even is 358 gold13 silver - below that listed price the craft loses gold once Blizzard’s 5% cut is taken. The crafted item’s lowest listed price is 9,599 gold98 silver, which clears it.

At that listed price the gross margin before fees is 9,259 gold75 silver; the Auction House would keep 479 gold99 silver of a sale, leaving 8,779 gold75 silver. That is an estimated 2580.5% return on the gold you put into reagents, after the cut has taken 5.2% of the gross.

Listing depth right now: 17 units across 12 auctions region-wide. Depth separates a market price from a single asking figure, but listings are not sales, so read it alongside the estimate.
