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.
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 →
