The crafted item currently lists for less than its reagents cost: 1 gold12 silver before fees, and the Auction House would still take 6 silver of a sale, so a craft loses 1 gold18 silver at these prices. At current listings, buying the crafted item costs less than making it. That is an estimated -50.9% return on the gold you put into reagents.
