Reagent cost, the crafted item's lowest listed price and the estimated profit at that price, from current US Auction House listings - recalculated every snapshot.
Crafting estimate at current listings
At current lowest listed prices one craft shows an estimated profit of 11 gold79 silver, but the crafted item’s listing is far from its 30-day median (see below).
- Reagent cost (lowest listed)
- 60 gold63 silver
- Crafted item, lowest listed price
- 76 gold24 silver
- Auction House cut (5%)
- 3 gold81 silver
- Estimated profit at that listed price
- 11 gold79 silver (+20%)
- Evidence: 16 current listings holding 116 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 34 times its 30-day median of 2 gold22 silver, so this estimate rests on a listing far above its usual level.

Reading these numbers
At current lowest listed prices the 3 reagents for one craft of Steelskin Potion cost 60 gold63 silver. Most of that is Sea Stalk - 10 at 3 gold27 silver each, 32 gold70 silver, 53.9% of the whole basket. Watch that one price and you have watched most of this recipe.
Break-even is 63 gold82 silver - below that listed price the craft loses gold once Blizzard’s 5% cut is taken. The crafted item’s lowest listed price is 76 gold24 silver, which clears it.
At that listed price the gross margin before fees is 15 gold61 silver; the Auction House would keep 3 gold81 silver of a sale, leaving 11 gold79 silver. That is an estimated 19.5% return on the gold you put into reagents, after the cut has taken 24.4% of the gross.
Listing depth right now: 116 units across 16 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 →
