Historically, few pirates bought ships. Letters of marque are another matter all together. The one exception was Major Stede Bonnet who actually bought his ship and paid a crew but he wasn't all that good at it.

I never said anything about buying ships, who said anything about buying ships, you were the only one who said anything about buying ships, you got some for sail (oops sale
