- Evidence: 11 current listings holding 152 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 4.3 times its 30-day median of 44 silver, so this estimate rests on a listing far above its usual level.

Where the reagents come from
Glacial Salmon. No recipe, Blizzard quest reward or dungeon journal drop in our game data produces it. Also a required reagent in 3 other recipes (3 Cooking); Fish Feast takes the most, 2 per craft.
Reading these numbers
At current lowest listed prices the 1 reagent for one craft of Smoked Salmon cost 2 gold75 silver.
Break-even is 2 gold89 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 gold89 silver, which does not clear it.
The crafted item currently lists for less than its reagents cost: −86 silver before fees, and the Auction House would still take 9 silver45 copper of a sale, so a craft loses 95 silver45 copper at these prices. At current listings, buying the crafted item costs less than making it. That is an estimated -34.7% return on the gold you put into reagents.
Listing depth right now: 152 units across 11 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 →
