But I can’t purchase any of the Renown-locked rewards from the faction vendors. Is this a bug or do I misunderstand the point of Renown?

it’s confirmed a bug.
Hoping they’ll fix it soon.

Worth noting while 424 epics look kinda flashy right now as the world content ilvl cap*, we’re going up to 447s dropping from open world on Tuesday.
From random mobs, or a chance to drop from elites/rares you can’t solo?
Elites and rares, weekly quests / events, basic crafting.
Basically add 39 to whatever ilvl item you got from 10.1 and comparable content in 10.2 will give that ilvl. 447 is the new 408 and 408+ items were everywhere.
To be clear, 424 for a char boost isn’t stingy by any means. It just looks more impressive than it is because of how big an ilvl jump is coming next patch.
One could almost argue that Blizzard have achieved a P2W situation by selling a boost that includes high level gear, gear that many of us have not been in a position to get, given its almost the level of the new raid gear on Heroic.
I’m not making that argument really but damn, it’s close.

Its not even close. Its equivalent to being given 385 gear in 10.1…
OK, its close to Heroic raid gear from Aberrus.
Which is a lot better than my character has that just hit 70.

Yes, but we’re going up 39 ilvls next tier, not the traditional 26. They made it 424 so characters can hold their own against the world content coming in the next patch. You’ll replace every single thing you’re wearing in days, as will a fresh 70 boost.
Heroic raid for anyone interested next tier is 467-476.

thats the case, all of my toons will be a shambles in world content come Wednesday, because none of them have 424 gear. Something to look forward to, I guess…

I doubt it’ll be shambles because the story quest, like it did in ZC is going to throw gear at you. Just this time around you might actually have a use for it.
Also crafting with enchanted whelp crests, which in 10.1 gave 408, will give 447 with the new open world mats meaning you can get 447s in whatever slot with whatever stats pretty quickly.
A GM confirmed there is indeed a bug with the boost and renown. The Boosted Renown is working because you can do all the high level renown quest however the vendors DO NOT recognize your renown
