  Comments:
The verb is relatively common. The spelling 買増す exists too, but is primarily used for the derived noun 買増し (usually in the context of financial markets: "top-up purchase", "incremental buying" etc.), for the verb itself it's relatively rare. Not sure if 買い増し・買増し [n,vs] is worth a special entry.
