'Bye' is short for 'Goodbye' and 'buy for now' is similar to 'See you soon' or Пока, До скорого.

Hi Terminator,

You say 'Bye for now' when you leave somebody. The verb 'to buy' sounds the same but means 'to purchase something.' So to answer your question, 'bye for now' is correct in the given context.
