Reading these numbers

At current lowest listed prices the 2 reagents for one craft of Starfire Espresso cost 8 gold58 silver. Most of that is Cocoa Beans - 1 at 8 gold57 silver each, 8 gold57 silver, 99.9% of the whole basket. Watch that one price and you have watched most of this recipe.

Break-even is 9 gold3 silver - below that listed price the craft loses gold once Blizzard’s 5% cut is taken. The crafted item’s lowest listed price is 2 gold95 silver, which does not clear it.

The crafted item currently lists for less than its reagents cost: −5 gold63 silver before fees, and the Auction House would still take 14 silver75 copper of a sale, so a craft loses 5 gold77 silver at these prices. At current listings, buying the crafted item costs less than making it. That is an estimated -67.3% return on the gold you put into reagents.

Listing depth right now: 193 units across 12 auctions region-wide. Depth separates a market price from a single asking figure, but listings are not sales, so read it alongside the estimate.
