Reading these numbers

At current lowest listed prices the 5 reagents for one craft of The Hungry Magister cost 20 gold7 silver. Most of that is Highmountain Salmon - 5 at 3 gold33 silver each, 16 gold65 silver, 83.0% of the whole basket. Watch that one price and you have watched most of this recipe.

Break-even is 21 gold12 silver per craft, 3 gold1 silver per item at 7 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 13 silver, which does not clear it.

The crafted item currently lists for less than its reagents cost: −19 gold16 silver before fees, and the Auction House would still take 4 silver55 copper of a sale, so a craft loses 19 gold20 silver at these prices. At current listings, buying the crafted item costs less than making it. That is an estimated -95.7% return on the gold you put into reagents.

Listing depth right now: 1,346 units across 53 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 →
