I am led to believe that all of the items sold by this NPC are gag items, they will not provide you with anything but a sense of stupidity for purchasing them. If you read the descriptions carefully you will notice that EVERY single one of the amulets he sells provides you with the "ability" to do things you may already do.
For example, the most expensive one claims it will grant you the ability to "come back to the dead", but you can already do that because when you die, your spirit releases. Another claims to keep "dangerous critters" at bay, and says it will make it so that they will not harm you if you do not attack them. Well duh, they're critters. They are a joke, and at the most, a way of suckering people into wasting gold. I hope this saves at least one person from making that mistake.

If you actually read the items closely, you can already do everything that is stated on the items.
You can swim.
You can resurrect if you walk back to your body.
You can run over small cracks in the ground.
If you wear an amulet it is located above your heart.
You might find items.
If you equip the soap, you will carry it with you anywhere you go.
Eating/drinking will give you mana/heal you.
You will be protected from Tikbalangs, since they don't exist.
Critters won't attack you, unless you strike them first.
Good stuff, especially from all the people complaining about getting scammed on the General Forums.

In 2.1.0 Griftah gets a friend. The Sha'tar send Peacekeeper Jadaar to oversee our good troll buddy and the discussion between the two when Griftah is trying to scam is hillarious.

In patch 2.2 he will be moved outside of Shattrath.

What about the treasure tracking? Is that a scam, or is it the real thing?

Not only is Griftah a cheapy, he is rather rude if you listen to what he says
" Hey (class/race)! How'bout some soap on a roap to get rid of that awful smell!"

He is outside Shattrath now in the PTRs, on the road north of the exit from Lower City (Next to Scryer Tier).

As of patch 2.1.3 Griftah has been exiled from shattrath city and in his tent is a scryer investigator and Peacekeeper Jaadrar. I guess his shady dealings finally caught up with him lol. When you click the peacekeeper he tells you hes been exiled. And if you stand there for awhile he tells you Griftah might walk up to you if you are outside the city walls

Here are some quotes from Griftah's new location from the perspective of a male character:
Amazing amulets! Incredible curios! The newfangled jewelcrafters be havin' nothin' on the tried and true mystical methods of... the... uh... the newly relocated Griftah! Improve yerself through these magical talismans for a bargain price!
I can't believe they be chasin' me outta the city. Innit supposed to be a refuge? Ol' Griftah be a refugee! Not my fault I be an ENTERPRISIN' refugee...
Check this out, <race>! Ya know what ya be needin'? One of these flowers. Lilacs, right outta the mystical forest of Terokkar! Rare! So rare! Ya don't see any of 'em around me, do ya? A pretty flower for a pretty lady, right? Right?
Heh... heh... hey! You! I may be down, but I be gettin' back on my feet! Come over here and look at what I got. The rarest and most marvelous amulets, right here! I even picked up some extra bits! Come on, come on, ya know ya wanna look.
Okay, okay, I know what ya be thinkin'. This be a stick. But it be no ORDINARY stick, no! What ya be seein' here, <class>, be a stick of incredible rarity and extraordinary value, shaped by the very powers that wrought the world! Ya wanna own this fantastic piece of Draenor, touched by magnificent power, I know ya do. I be practically givin' em away!

Confirmed: Griftah's banishment is an ongoing storyline and not the result of real-life complaints. This from Griftah's developer himself:

He will sell the Hula Girl Doll which will be needed by Engineers (amongst many other things) to upgrade their normal flying mount to an epic flying mount.

Currently on the PTR patch 2.3 Griftah is back inside Shattrath City at his old location.
评论来自
Faileas
In 2.3, this Investigator Asric
https://www.wowhead.com/tbc/npc=23719
and Peacekeeper Jadaar
https://www.wowhead.com/tbc/npc=23079
are located in the World's End Tavern where they discuss their failure of Griftah's investigation. Evidently some of the evidence was... misplaced or rendered useless to their investigations. Griftah has returned to his spot in Lower City, and Jadaar and Asric are barely on speaking terms.
To read all of their comments, you will need to bring both a Draenei character and a Blood Elf character to the Tavern as they each have some lines in their native tongue.

In 2.3 he no longer sells his pointed stick or Terrokar flower, but he has all of his amulets again for sale and the hula doll. The two investigators are now standing in the World's End Tavern. With Lower City reputation you can get his items cheaper, like the Hula Doll for about 75g.

In fact, as of patch 2.3 Griftah has been let back into Shattrath and starts a new quest involving Zul'Aman. He also sells a Hula Girl Doll necessary in crafting the epic engineering mount.

All of them things "allow" you to do things you can already do, read the descriptions properly.

...would such an obvious trick work so well.
With practically all the content in WoW screaming "don't upset the customers", people think every NPC is honest and every action you take must be "safe".
Brilliant!
评论来自
Thottbot
Scam is when you do some extortion.
No way you have any pressure telling you to buy.
No way you don't know what you gte, read the description.
If you pay, you do it WILLINGLY, and can't be sad except if you suddenly realize you are stoopid.
Blizzard did it mainly for _FUN_ as many other things in the game.
If your only question ever is "how can it be used ?" and your first thought is "usesell thing, blizz noob" then....
... go get a life, a brain, some sense of humour.
And please never come back in wow.

Guys this is just a joke vendor for novelty.
There's no conspiracy there's no use for the items either.
IT'S for fun just like the mood rings and wedding rings from Booty Bay. I do not want to see anymore posts here because it is completely not needed unless someone finds a miraculous use for some of these joke items.

Jump over small rocks?
Swim?
Never ever get pulled into a tree?
Never get attacked by a critter unless you attack it?
Never get attacked by a non-existing creature called Tikbalang?
NEVER KNEW!

I think of him as an idiot indentifier

Thottbot
I found this mob to be very entertaining and I'm glad Blizz put him in the game. After seeing his name I never bought from him. Once I saw a person %^&*! about spending 40g on a worthless P.O.S and got a good laugh out of it.
评论来自
Thottbot
I personally think Blizzard put him in for 2 reasons:
1) Economy control. Blizzard deducts inflation through auction house deposits, mail, and vendors. Why not add an extra NPC that takes money from the rich and... gullible...
2)And the more likely reason that EVERYONE has stated (except the rare few that take blizzard too seriously) is that it's a joke, and a funny one at that. You'd figure Blizzard would give a crap if they put in useless NPCs... but no, they don't. If you've been playing blizzard games as far back as starcraft or diablo, you would know they have a history of putting in useless quests and gag items.
And for those who did fall for it. well i can understand, I had the temptation to TRY it once, just to see if it worked. WEll look at the bright side, you're doing your part to control inflation
评论来自
Thottbot
I'm being safe. Just you all wait until that Tikbalang swings out of the trees at crits you for 15K. Then they take all your items and delete your account. How's that for economy management? I can see the combat log now: "Shoulda bought an amulet, %^&*!."

I love reading these comments :) 90% of the time, the people yelling 'noob' at every oppertunity are ones themselves. The more serious players getting annoyed by these necklaces are also entertaining to read, Keep going. Please! :D

I bought the Tikbalang ward, and i was walking through terrokar when suddenly this huge donkey-man jumps from a tree, stuns me, grabs me and jumps into a tree, and raises this massive axe-mace, and he's qbout to crit me for 15k (i knew he would, it wasn't that difficult to guess how much damage the axe-mace would do) when he stops and says:
"Oh, my bad. I see you got a ward there, damn my luck. i get to come outta this tree, what, once a monther, and i pick the guy who has a ward."
Then he gave me a quest to talk to him.
I talked to him and he gave me 50 gold.
And...if you still believe me...
He then got me to level 70, bought me an epic flying mount, tripled my size (permanently), gave me another 500,000 gold, along with every piece of my tier 900 armor, and, uh...gave me some soap on a rope.

Thottbot
What I love about this guy's stuff is that it's a commentary on all the stuff your character does that's completely ridiculous really, but completely mundane in game terms -- healing wounds with food? Running back to your corpse after death and resurrecting? Finding armor, weapons, and lockboxes on animal mobs? Clearly every character was issued a set of these amulets on entering the game, and just hasn't realized it yet!
评论来自
Thottbot
This guy is not a scammer. All of his things to exactly what they say they do.
The Critter Warding one, bought that and not a single bunny or squirrel has attacked me. Same with the Tiki whatever they are called things.
I bought the Stone of Stupendous Strides and I can now jump over the average gnome. I can also swim very well in the ocean.
Treasure Tracking, I bought this and I managed to find a nice green axe inside a boar. Oh, and the spirit anchoring one. I bought that, and one time I got jumped by an Alliance, and then I was in like Shadowworld or something, but everything was where it normally was, and I walked back to my body and came to life again!
And the Soap on a Rope. Bought this, and no one walks up to me and says "You stink" and no one vomits as I walk by.

You'll understand the trick by osserving the comedy between Griftah and the Drenei near him. As you go close to him, Griftah call your name (or eventually your race or class) and try to convince you to buy something... The Draenei comment warn you that he's not a trustable vendor.. just a good joke btw.

As you're sitting down to eat some food and regain your lost health, Tikbalang swims across the river... jumps over a small stone... pulls you over to a tree, interupting your dinner... procedes to search you for his missing rare soap-on-a-rope so he can take a bath. Unfortunately he beats you to death with the soap before jumping over a small stone and back into the river.

Some of the best fun I've ever had...
Though I was saving for my epic mount at the time...
I went ahead and bought ten Soap on a Rope...
And did my duty to keep the Horde Clean by handing it out to random ppl...usually low level's who weren't aware of the joke...
*laughs so hard he passes out*
What? htanks!

ok, English is not my first language, how was I support to know the name off the vendor sounds like some slang for con-artist. (to my knowage 2/3 of the players aren't native english speaking)
is there some money-back-quest for the *!@# I bought here?
or is it just a way of blizzard to make me play another week to earn what I spend here?

Just in case someone misses it below, since people still swear by the Treasure Trinket.

1. a person who operates a side show at a circus, fair, etc., esp. a gambling attraction.
2. a swindler, dishonest gambler, or the like.

Read the descriptions carefully.. Can you see it? You can already do all these things anyway. Like for example, The Talisman of Treasure Tracking: "Wearing this, one might find the rarest of items in the most mundane of locales!" Kill a spider and he drops Blinkstrike. This is a very mundane locale. Rare items drop in the most mundane of locales anyway. And the Polished Pendant of Edible Energy. Food and Drink already heal your wounds and give you energy already. So don't waste gold on these things unless you want them for novelty purposes. Because you can already do all these things (and they don't work either way)
I bought them all for fun :P
