What you see is the required level. If you hold Alt, you'll see the item level.

The vendors only sell bases of lvl 64~65 maximum, and only the ones from expedition are higher iirc, you can refresh the expedition vendors in your hideout with an exotic coinage

But for drops you can set what item level AND base level you want, expert bases are more or less level 80 and advanced are level 90

If you're still seeing low level items then you didn't set you filter correctly, some items like rings don't have a higher base variant
