I honestly don't understand what your expectations are... to just make a lvl 6 toon and make a lovely walk down to isengrad so you can pick up mats?
crafting is meant to be restricted and it should progress alongside your toon (meaning that at a certain level, you will be able to gather mats and make things appropriate for that lvl)
and there is no 'deceptive buisness' here... I don't know how you got the idea that low lvl toons are, or should be able to gather high level materials.

frankly, you should reconsider what your are complaining about, because, if you were mislead or tricked, you did it to yourself...
