Shimmering Clasp quality ranks

Shimmering Clasp comes in 3 quality ranks, and each rank is its own item on the Auction House. The recipe’s base crafting difficulty is 200.

RankItemLowest listed priceListings (US)
Rank 1Shimmering Clasp6 gold20 listings, 124 units
Rank 2Shimmering Clasp9 gold50 silver32 listings, 879 units
Rank 3Shimmering Clasp5 gold90 silver47 listings, 1,324 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 3, so a craft that comes out at a higher rank is worth less at today’s listings, not more.

Shimmering Clasp: lowest listed price, last 30 days

The current lowest listing is 51% below its 30-day median. Over these 30 days the lowest listing moved more than tenfold, so a single snapshot, including the one the estimate uses, can sit far from typical.
