Do you say "I don't let you buy it" or "I don't let you bought it"? Of course, it must be "I don't let you buy it". Then why does "wouldn't have" make you ponder? Because of a change of tense? Nonsense! To get to the point, "I wouldn't have let you buy it". By the way, it's grammar, not grammer. Didn't the Check Spelling flag the error?

buy is the correct word, however, if you are saying this to a woman you are probably going to get slapped and a heated arguement. Better to keep your mouth shut. :)

I am not sure of the context you are using it in.
1) If they were buying a product, then the correct grammar is "Purchase"
2) If they were taking something with them to a picnic (to bring it along) for example, then the correct grammar is "Brought"

it depends on the situation...if you're dealing with future tense, you may want to say "buy" but if you're dealing with a past tense and you have a regret over the things that you did, you may want to say "bought"

I would have prevented (prohibited)(scotched) or whatever verb you choose, that particular purchase.
