If you're going to track him down to buy the Damaged Diving Helmet, Propulsion Device and Jelly Jam - you need to have Luminescent Research Notes - I'm already out of there now, but you'll need a few hundred. I guess you get those questing in Vashjir, but you'd also better have gotten the seahorse or take some diving equipment to breath. You can buy the 15-minute stuff on auction.

He seems to be currently bugged. You can click on him and he responds, but won't let you buy anything

For the Trading Post, he tends to move locations everytime you see him. I wasn't able to interact with him until he moved to just under the Submarine, and then i was able to buy stuff from him.

In order to purchase items from Max (you will need 600 total Luminary Research Notes to buy all three items), you need to first equip one of the Damaged Diving Helmets floating in the water around him. Once the helmet is equipped, you will be able to interact with three different types of luminary fish (Luminescent Grouper, Luminescent Eel, and Luminescent Jelly) in the zone, which will then follow you for 10 minutes each. The equipped helmet has an interactable button that turns the lamp on or off; I found it easier to spot the luminary fish with the lamp off. You can have all three fish following you at the same time. Bring the fish back to submarine above Max, swim into its beam of light, and you will get a large random number of the research notes deposited to your bag for as long as the fish timers are active and your light is on. (I had all three fish and got 868 notes for the time my fish were active the first time and 1,392 the second time.) Once the fish timers wear off, if you need more notes, go out and get more fish and bring them back again. Repeat as necessary. Important note: The Whale Shark will one shot you if you have your lamp on! Make sure to keep your eyes open and turn the lamp off as soon as he spawns. If he kills you, you'll need to get a new helmet and start over gathering new fish.

Max Megablast can be bugged. He won't sell you anything. If that happens, just exit WoW and restart.

P.S. Some of the designers Blizzard must be scuba divers. The Vashj'ir zone really feels you are underwater.
And this Luminous mini-holiday is just like your l-o-n-g 5 minute safety stop 15 feet below the surface!

A quick fix is to swim away out of range then swim back to him. You don’t need to be on top of him to interact with him.

This worked for me. With Max still targeted (below sub but a little further away), I swam away until the target dropped then swam back. He had teleported to a new location (very close to the submarine) and just right clicked.
