Another hello from the PNW

[Morbius]

Been lurking for a while! Just getting started. I'm primarily interested in semaglutide. We've done legit Rx sema before and it worked well, but costs became prohibitive.

I will try to minimize the number of dumb questions I post.

 

[TetsuNW]

Right on! PNW represent!

Dumb posts are allowed, just look at me! I post all the time!

Don’t try to limit the dumb questions. It’s more important that you learn the answers to the dumb questions because those are things you ought to know. If it’s not a dumb question, then it involves something that comes up less often and is less important.

Welcome. The Pacific Northwest has a strong presence on this site & within these forums. Much to learn in an ever changing environment.

A pro dumb questions take, I like it. I'll be a STAR!

I wanna start with one about the forum rules. They say:

Discussing various vendors including personal experiences and reviews in the appropriate sections is fine, but any usernames or posts which the mods or admins determine to be shilling will be deleted and you risk being banned.

Mostly I see people naming vendors in shorthand. For example there is a "favorite vendor" poll in Weight Loss and it uses abbreviations which are obscure enough to me that they are meaningless.

Are we only allowed to discuss vendors openly in the Vendors subforum? Or am I overthinking it?

Here's another question... I am maintaining a spreadsheet of vendor prices for sema/tirz, which I used to make my own first order recently. Other people might want to see this info. Is it kosher to share it and if so, what's the right place to put that post?

Forums like this have specific rules for good reason and I want to be a good citizen.

-Search those three letter acronyms in the search bar by searching the three letters in the search bar followed by a *. Ie: AMO*
The search hates three letters, the asterisk tricks it. You can search any mention, or threads with them in the name.

-Sharing spreadsheets causes drama.... I'd ask the mod directly before doing so tbh

TYVM @chmuse !

Also keep in mind, there's always some sort of new vendor drama. Your spreadsheet should be kept up to date. Don't assume the vendor you added to it with a 'this one sounds good' note is still good two months later.

 

[Morbius]

Yeah, it's an aid for placing an order in the near future, and an aid for keeping track of decent vendors overall. I will have to recheck the pricing and look for recent reviews here on the forum before ordering every time.

Just now, in reviewing others' posts discussing vendors, I learned I could have saved some dough on what I ordered if I had found the other vendor first... Well, if that is the worst mistake I make in all of this, I can live with it!

Price disparity is higher than I expected to see. You really have to do your homework.

Sharing the spreadsheet would be fine, according to me. However, I'm neither the administrator nor a mod.
