Crafting estimate at current listings

At current lowest listed prices one craft shows an estimated profit of 56 gold30 silver, but the crafted item’s listing is far from its 30-day median (see below).

Reagent cost (lowest listed): 29 gold20 silver
Crafted item, lowest listed price: 90 gold
Auction House cut (5%): 4 gold50 silver
Estimated profit at that listed price: 56 gold30 silver (+193%)

Evidence: 13 current listings holding 54 units of the crafted item in the US region. We see listings, not sales, so how many sell and at what price is unknown.
Outlier: the crafted item’s lowest listing is 22 times its 30-day median of 4 gold, so this estimate rests on a listing far above its usual level.
Quality: Sensei's Sundered Onyx comes in 3 quality ranks. This is the base comparison, rank 1 reagents against the rank 1 result; your skill and the reagents’ ranks decide the rank you actually get, which this estimate does not model. Each rank’s lowest listing is in the rank table below.
Not included: the recipe also accepts 1 finishing reagent slot, which are not required and are left out of the cost.

Sensei's Sundered Onyx quality ranks

Sensei's Sundered Onyx comes in 3 quality ranks, and each rank is its own item on the Auction House. The recipe’s base crafting difficulty is 60.

Rank	Item	Lowest listed price	Listings (US)
Rank 1	Sensei's Sundered Onyx	90 gold	13 listings, 54 units
Rank 2	Sensei's Sundered Onyx	26 gold82 silver	12 listings, 70 units
Rank 3	Sensei's Sundered Onyx	15 gold	17 listings, 212 units

The crafting estimate above is the base comparison: rank 1 reagents against the rank 1 result. Your skill and the reagents’ ranks decide which rank a craft actually makes, so a higher rank is never priced against rank 1 reagents here. Right now rank 1 lists above rank 2 and rank 3, so a craft that comes out at a higher rank is worth less at today’s listings, not more.

Sensei's Sundered Onyx: lowest listed price, last 30 days

30-day high: 44,090 gold Sep 21
30-day median: 4 gold

Reading these numbers

At current lowest listed prices the 2 reagents for one craft of Sensei's Sundered Onyx cost 29 gold20 silver. Most of that is Rousing Fire - 2 at 13 gold85 silver each, 27 gold70 silver, 94.9% of the whole basket. Watch that one price and you have watched most of this recipe.

Break-even is 30 gold73 silver - below that listed price the craft loses gold once Blizzard’s 5% cut is taken. The crafted item’s lowest listed price is 90 gold, which clears it.

At that listed price the gross margin before fees is 60 gold80 silver; the Auction House would keep 4 gold50 silver of a sale, leaving 56 gold30 silver. That is an estimated 192.8% return on the gold you put into reagents, after the cut has taken 7.4% of the gross.

Listing depth right now: 54 units across 13 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 →
