Tenses?

I bought/have bought eggs from the market, sure as eggs is eggs.

Which is correct, bought or have bought?

Thanks in advance.

Both are fine because there is no mention of a time when this happened. If you had added something like "yesterday", then only "bought" (not "have bought") would have been possible. CJ
