It is actually fairly possible that certain analogue acts don't include N-alkoxy derivatives of amines. HOT-2 and HOT-7 were perfectly legal in some places where 2C-T-2 and 2C-T-7, to which the former two are probably metabolised as reported effects suggest, were not.
I wouldn't know why would anyone stock kilos of N-methoxynormephedrone as normephedrone itself didn't kick off at all, perhaps it's the lack of better alternatives at the moment but in 2008-2009 this would be on par with shitty cathinones like 4-EMC or 4-MEC, I guess. I haven't tried normephedrone myself, but if you compare cathinone with methcathinone, the former doesn't really look that pale even though it's much less potent. However, the problem of normephedrone could just be that it's too serotonin-oriented vs. mephedrone and that could kill the dopamine kick that's already reduced with a primary instead of a secondary amine. There might also be a tendency to switch to combined products now if there are no new legal and easily to synthesize compounds that could be successful on their own, we've already seen some attempts at this, and this mexedrone may be now tested as a possible constituent of such mixes.
