Crafting estimate at current listings
At current lowest listed prices the reagents cost more than the crafted item lists for: an estimated loss of 91 silver80 copper per craft.

- Evidence: 271 current listings holding 4,646 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 99% below its 30-day median of 4 gold99 silver, so this estimate rests on a listing far below its usual level.
- Items per craft: the game’s spell data creates 4 per craft, so the listed value of one craft is that many times the lowest listed price.

Reading these numbers
At current lowest listed prices the 3 reagents for one craft of Snake Burst Firework cost 1 gold7 silver. Most of that is Runecloth - 2 at 49 silver each, 98 silver, 91.6% of the whole basket. Watch that one price and you have watched most of this recipe.
Break-even is 1 gold12 silver per craft, 28 silver16 copper per item at 4 items a craft - below that listed price the craft loses gold once Blizzard’s 5% cut is taken. The crafted item’s lowest listed price is 4 silver, which does not clear it.
The crafted item currently lists for less than its reagents cost: −91 silver before fees, and the Auction House would still take 80 copper of a sale, so a craft loses 91 silver80 copper at these prices. At current listings, buying the crafted item costs less than making it. That is an estimated -85.8% return on the gold you put into reagents.
Listing depth right now: 4,646 units across 271 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 →
