**Any questions that ask which specific X they should buy are off topic,**

To quote [Kevin][1],

>The reasons that shopping recommendations (note, recommendations, not everything to do with shopping) were barred on the Trilogy in the first place boil down to the following
>
> - They are open-ended
> - They invite spam
> - They will be "utterly obsolete within a year."

and to quote [Kate Gregory][1]

>The key to a shopping question is that it asks others "**please make a subjective decision for me and explain it**" or "**please list all my possibilities with their strengths and weaknesses".**

What we should do with these questions is to either

- Edit them to ask [which features are important][2],

- Suggest that they ask in Chat, which is perfectly fine.
- If not edited, close them.
