How is that a solution? Leveling a Gathering class won't solve the costs associated with the crafts. Even if he gathered the materials + crystals and decides to join in with the masses by selling goods for less than a crystal means he still loses out on gil by not just selling the materials

Right, so just sell the materials instead after leveling your gathering class. Sooner or later the low pricing players will see that they run out of crystals and will stop flooding the markets. The problem is that when starting a new character, every quest gives you the crystals you'll need for the crafting classes in your starting town - I was able to level my weaver to 23 before running out of crystals. So if you're new to the game you might not even realize, that you're depending on These crystals.
