Did you know?

Which sentence is correct? and why please? I think the second sentence is correct because when you use the word "did" the verb must be in present tense. Do I put question mark after the sentence?

Did you know that I bought an iPod Touch?

Or

Did you know that I buy an iPod Touch?

The first is correct. "Did you know" is a past tense. The present tense would be "Do you know".
