I had to answer both Yes and No to "Friends in the same age cohort", as the age spread of our friends is up to +-20 years.

It was the Baen eBook edition that got me hooked, back when it first appeared. What amazed me was that I had not heard of any of them before, as I used to be a ras-f(w) regular both before and after the Great Divide.

Well it depends on what you mean by age cohort certainly. My definitions are fairly broad.

Carpe Diem I picked up second hand. I can't remember how now. Later I got given a book voucher, remembered it and picked up some more of the books. After that I was hooked and got the rest when I was able.

I'm fairly sure this was after I was part owner of a SF&F bookshop otherwise it would have been easier for me to obtain them.

I answered "Yes", because it felt right. Looking at the answers, I note that none of my friends who have answered this are really close to me in age, but it still feels right. Maybe we're all about the same age on the inside?

Yes, exactly. I don't actually think much about the 'real' age of my friends, I just regard them as "about the same age as me" (unless they comment about not being born when Apollo finished, or about being adult when Sputnik was launched, which rather gives it away). "The same age on the inside" describes it nicely.
