Question

Is it permissible for me to buy a monitor arm on Chol Hamoed (I will use it immediately)?

Answer

Hello

It is permissible to purchase items for the needs of the festival.

However, the permission is only valid in a store that is open according to Halacha.

This means: a store that also sells food items can operate as usual. A store that sells only tools and other products must be open with a modification, for example, opening one of two doors, or partially opening the door.
