So found something interesting that may or may not be related but...
Back in the fall of 2016, I get a call from a friend asking if I'll come over to test out his product he just bought. I gladly say yes and stop out.
The product upon initial examination appeared to me to be mdma. It was a brownish crystalline substance with an odd smell I've never smelt but still somewhat reminiscent of safrole.
My friend and his girl each dosed with around 100-200mg from my poor memory (i think they started with 100 then may have redosed) and reported very weak effects unlike mdma as he claimed.
I tested the product and the results were unlike any mdma results I've seen before. Close but not close enough and typically there's not much variation in the colors, or so I thought.. I pretty much told him it was bunk and that was that, or so I thought...
Well today I was looking at ecstasydata again, just skimming results, and looked up results with MDP2Pol (an impurity we've found provides mongy bad product, thanks to indigo and his testing) and found a result that matched perfectly what I had tested a good while back..

Now this result was sent in near the exact date my friend also received his product. It looks identical and biggest thing that caught my eye was the reagent results. They looked almost identical, especially the odd marquis results that we magenta. The only difference was this stuff wasn't in the same state as us but not the first time I've seen far away imports.
The product was:
MDMA- 13
MDP2Pol- 1
Now I'm starting to think that was same stuff my buddy had. Note my buddy and his girl know good product, he has gotten me lots of good mdma and lsd over the years. His description of the effects somewhat matches what we've heard before regarding product with this impurity by indigo.
It seems this impurity is either problematic itself or an indicator for something else (possibly piperonal as a starting precursor is the problem, or so it would seem..)
Also I'm now more aware of how reagent results can vary a good amount based on impurities present.
