The reason for that is because if you could buy armor from vendors for that cheap, then it would be extremely pointless for ANYONE to put ANY points into crafting (at all).

They want to make crafting possible to be useful, so, thus, other armour costs a lot. (Whereas... you find and make it yourself ... free)

p.s. Ashen Grip is kinda cool. still i could understad this if you would get more gold. but the max you get from killing a bandit is three gold. and yes i get that no one would craft stuff but how about....you can only buy steel-iron armor but the the really good armor you get when you level up your skill Bandits have no gold because Bandits have no gold themselves :P True. If Bandits actually had gold, they wouldn't need to be Bandits then, would they? no because bandits had gold in skyrim and oblivion...o...m....g......ZENIMAX MUGGED THE BANDITS !!!
