Reading these numbers
At current lowest listed prices the 3 reagents for one craft of Solid Amber cost 160 gold21 silver. Most of that is Crushed Gemstones - 6 at 23 gold44 silver each, 140 gold64 silver, 87.8% of the whole basket. Watch that one price and you have watched most of this recipe.
Break-even is 168 gold64 silver - below that listed price the craft loses gold once Blizzard’s 5% cut is taken. The crafted item’s lowest listed price is 300 gold, which clears it.
At that listed price the gross margin before fees is 139 gold79 silver; the Auction House would keep 15 gold of a sale, leaving 124 gold79 silver. That is an estimated 77.9% return on the gold you put into reagents, after the cut has taken 10.7% of the gross.
Listing depth right now: 21 units across 5 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 →
