Where the reagents come from

Tin Ore. No recipe, Blizzard quest reward or dungeon journal drop in our game data produces it. Also a required reagent in 1 other recipe (1 Blacksmithing); Relic of the Past II takes the most, 5 per craft.

Reading these numbers

At current lowest listed prices the 1 reagent for one craft of Smelt Tin cost 1 gold70 silver.

Break-even is 1 gold78 silver - below that listed price the craft loses gold once Blizzard’s 5% cut is taken. The crafted item’s lowest listed price is 1 gold94 silver, which clears it.

At that listed price the gross margin before fees is 24 silver; the Auction House would keep 9 silver70 copper of a sale, leaving 14 silver30 copper. That is an estimated 8.4% return on the gold you put into reagents, after the cut has taken 40.4% of the gross.

Listing depth right now: 29,540 units across 47 auctions region-wide. Depth separates a market price from a single asking figure, but listings are not sales, so read it alongside the estimate.
