Reading these numbers

At current lowest listed prices the 2 reagents for one craft of Transmute: Sorcerous Fire to Air cost 1 gold90 silver. Most of that is Sorcerous Fire - 10 at 15 silver each, 1 gold50 silver, 78.9% of the whole basket. Watch that one price and you have watched most of this recipe.

Break-even is 2 gold per craft, 20 silver 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 18 silver, which does not clear it.

The crafted item currently lists for less than its reagents cost: 10 silver before fees, and the Auction House would still take 9 silver of a sale, so a craft loses 19 silver at these prices. At current listings, buying the crafted item costs less than making it. That is an estimated -10.0% return on the gold you put into reagents.

Listing depth right now: 42,257 units across 58 auctions region-wide. Depth separates a market price from a single asking figure, but listings are not sales, so read it alongside the estimate.
