Timewalking Rep tokens 20% more rep!
If you use the tokens from timewalking ( 500 rep points to TBC factions ) in your garrison with a lvl 3 trading post you get 600 for each rep instead of 500 ( 20% extra ) Pretty sure that isn't intended.

I'm also pretty sure, that isn't intended, too.
Thanks for sharing. ☺

Im pretty sure it is intended, there is a reason why the trading post gives rep boost to all factions and not just Draenor reputations which they have done on other items. But it is a good reminder, most people forget (like me) or dont know you can do this

The trading post is meant to give you a boost to all Draenor reps only, but blizzard was lazy and decided to instead give you a hidden buff while in Draenor that instead gives you a 20% rep increase so under normal circumstances it does the same thing.
With these tokens you can take advantage of this hidden buff and get extra rep if you use them on a certain continent I'm 100% sure that was not intended as the trading post is not a 20% buff to ALL reps, only specific Draenor reputations,

Good on Blizz for their lazy approach to giving 20% bonus to things lol. +7 rep, great time saver!

It's been stated by blue on the forums, and via Twitter, that consumable rep items used in a garrison with a trading post will get the extra reputation by design. It's completely intentional and is not an exploit.
At this point it's pretty much a well known feature for people who have trading posts.

It is completely intended, the same way you don't get the increased reputation when you use a Medallion of the Legion (for Draenor reputations) while not in Draenor.
The Trading Post description clearly says: "Increases reputation gain in Draenor by 20%.", not Draenor reputations. It's about paying attetion to details.
Anyway, a good reminder, as not using the Medallions in the Darkmoon Faire.

No, Trading Post is not for Draenor reps only, where did you get this? It's not Medallion of the Legion to booost specific faction reps.
It intentionally gives you bonus reputation while you're on Draenor no matter what faction. (Of course, it limits out most of unrelated factions automatically - but many non-WoD reps are allowed.)
