Super Compactor 3000 Craft Flip: Recipe, Minion Use and Margin
Last verified
The Super Compactor 3000 craft flip shows a positive spread of about 27,200 coins before fees per item at the October 29, 2026, 12:58 UTC quotes: about 126,600 coins to buy the ingredients and 153,800 coins to sell instantly. You need access to the recipe and enough coins for the full basket; skip the flip if fees and price changes consume that spread.
What do you need before crafting?
Open the recipe in-game before buying anything and confirm that your account can craft it. Budget about 126,600 coins for one craft using the October 29, 2026, 12:58 UTC instant-buy quotes, with extra room for price changes.
The Super Compactor 3000 is quoted on the Bazaar. Use that market’s live buy and sell quotes for this calculation rather than substituting an Auction House asking price.
What does it do for your minion?
The Super Compactor 3000 upgrades a minion to auto-compact its drops into enchanted forms. Choose it for that conversion: check the drops and upgrade compatibility of the minion you actually use before buying one.
Do not treat this as a blanket recommendation for every minion. Check the current Super Compactor 3000 wiki entry and the in-game upgrade description for your setup before committing coins.
How do you craft one?
The SkyCofl recipe yields one item from one Compactor, 224 Enchanted Cobblestone and 32 Enchanted Redstone Dust.
Put the Compactor in the centre, Enchanted Redstone Dust in the bottom-middle slot, and Enchanted Cobblestone in all seven remaining slots. In this grid, EC means Enchanted Cobblestone and ER means Enchanted Redstone Dust:
| Left | Middle | Right |
|---|---|---|
| 32 EC | 32 EC | 32 EC |
| 32 EC | 1 Compactor | 32 EC |
| 32 EC | 32 ER | 32 EC |
Is crafting profitable right now?
The quoted spread is positive; your net profit depends on fees and the prices you actually fill. All figures in this example are the October 29, 2026, 12:58 UTC SkyCofl snapshot, rounded as displayed. Refresh the live craft calculation before buying.
- Compactor: one at 9,000 coins costs 9,000 coins.
- Enchanted Cobblestone: 224 at 428.9 coins each cost about 96,100 coins.
- Enchanted Redstone Dust: 32 at 671.1 coins each cost about 21,500 coins.
The instant-buy basket totals about 126,600 coins.
For one craft at that snapshot, buying the ingredients outright and selling the finished item instantly gives 153,800 − 126,600 ≈ 27,200 coins before fees, or about 21.5% of ingredient cost. This is a price comparison, not a recorded trade.
The same snapshot estimates 88,200 coins for ingredients acquired with buy orders and 177,400 coins for the finished item’s sell offer. That gives an estimated 89,200-coin spread before fees, about 101.1% of ingredient cost, only if both sides fill at those prices; it is not the return from an immediate round trip.
For a minion upgrade you intend to keep, compare the same 126,600-coin instant ingredient basket with the 177,400-coin instant purchase quote for the finished item at that timestamp. Crafting uses the cheaper quoted route if you already have recipe access, but keeping the upgrade produces no resale proceeds.
When should you skip the flip?
Start with one craft and check the final transaction preview. Subtract selling fees and any additional execution costs from the quoted spread; proceed only if the remaining amount is worth your time.
Stop when the ingredient basket plus fees reaches the proceeds you can actually receive for the finished item. Rising ingredient costs, a falling output quote or unfilled orders invalidate this example; the larger order-based spread is especially dependent on waiting for fills.
Recheck every ingredient, including the Compactor, rather than carrying yesterday’s basket cost into a new sale. For the general process, use the craft-flipping guide; for order timing, use the Bazaar-flipping guide.
