Reading these numbers

At current lowest listed prices the 1 reagent for one craft of Transmute: Primal Fire to Earth cost 598 gold99 silver.

Break-even is 630 gold51 silver - below that listed price the craft loses gold once Blizzard’s 5% cut is taken. The crafted item’s lowest listed price is 56 gold38 silver, which does not clear it.

The crafted item currently lists for less than its reagents cost: 542 gold61 silver before fees, and the Auction House would still take 2 gold81 silver of a sale, so a craft loses 545 gold42 silver at these prices. At current listings, buying the crafted item costs less than making it. That is an estimated -91.1% return on the gold you put into reagents.

Listing depth right now: 9,783 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.
