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 the reagents cost more than the crafted item lists for: an estimated loss of 5 gold64 silver per craft.
- Reagent cost (lowest listed)
- 8 gold50 silver
- Crafted item, lowest listed price
- 3 gold1 silver
- Auction House cut (5%)
- 15 silver5 copper
- Estimated profit at that listed price
- −5 gold64 silver (-66%)
- Evidence: 6 current listings holding 70 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 4.1 times its 30-day median of 73 silver, so this estimate rests on a listing far above its usual level.

Reading these numbers
At current lowest listed prices the 2 reagents for one craft of Tender Shoveltusk Steak cost 8 gold50 silver. Most of that is Shoveltusk Flank - 2 at 4 gold each, 8 gold, 94.1% of the whole basket. Watch that one price and you have watched most of this recipe.
Break-even is 8 gold94 silver - below that listed price the craft loses gold once Blizzard’s 5% cut is taken. The crafted item’s lowest listed price is 3 gold1 silver, which does not clear it.
The crafted item currently lists for less than its reagents cost: −5 gold49 silver before fees, and the Auction House would still take 15 silver5 copper of a sale, so a craft loses 5 gold64 silver at these prices. At current listings, buying the crafted item costs less than making it. That is an estimated -66.4% return on the gold you put into reagents.
Listing depth right now: 70 units across 6 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 →
