I was about to purchase a used MPB but was told to stay away from the 2017-18 and 19 TouchBar - would you agree ?

And
Between these two computers which one would you buy?
Thank you

Please don't buy either of those. Heck, the '15 MBP probably has pirated versions of the software installed. Also, that's a god-awful deal for a 2015 MBP. The 2017 MBP has the butterfly keyboard, so if you have to buy one of these, that's the one to pick. But like I said, both are bad options, and you should try to find something else.
