The reason backpacks are so much and the iron gauntlets are not is because the gauntlets.. well they suck. Backpacks are useful for everybody, from newbie to HM.
I do agree that newbium should be more readily available and that crappy newbium equipment should be buyable at the stores. I would even suggest that the guild join room give you a newbium weapon of your chosen type when you join (say a choice of the weapon types offered of fine quality newbium).
