Break-even is 1 gold55 silver per craft, 15 silver58 copper per item at 10 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 11 silver, which does not clear it.

The crafted item currently lists for less than its reagents cost: −38 silver before fees, and the Auction House would still take 5 silver50 copper of a sale, so a craft loses 43 silver50 copper at these prices. At current listings, buying the crafted item costs less than making it. That is an estimated -29.4% return on the gold you put into reagents.
