Disclaimer: I make some assumptions in this post and have done some research but couldn't find the answer. Feel free to flame all you want if this is a stupid question. I have no real knowledge of chemistry.
I've seen someone advertising 97% pure MDA. It has been explained to me that MDMA made from the only commonly available precursors can only achieve a max purity of 84%. I am assuming that an MDA synth would similar in some ways so as to have some kind of purity limitations. I'm not trying to call anybody out, but it would be helpful to know if this is an inherently false claim or not.

I'm not sure about the maximum possible purity of MDA, but they probably mean it's 97% pure of the maximum 84% purity. Therefore 84 X 0.97 = 81.48% purity.
I may not be correct, but that's the most probable reason.

MDA crystallizes pretty easily, so there's no reason that 99+% purity shouldn't be possible by whatever route it's made. It's only up to the will and the skill of the chemist. FWIW, if I was getting 'super pure' MDA, I'd want it to be fine little clear (or white to the eye) needles - just like the best MDMA.

The pics show a dark brown powder. Looks very different from the ILF pics and they seem pretty reputable.
