Break-even is 296 gold98 silver per craft, 148 gold49 silver per item at 2 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 115 gold59 silver, which does not clear it.

The crafted item currently lists for less than its reagents cost: −50 gold96 silver before fees, and the Auction House would still take 11 gold55 silver of a sale, so a craft loses 62 gold51 silver at these prices. At current listings, buying the crafted item costs less than making it. That is an estimated -22.2% return on the gold you put into reagents.
