Based on what pages 6 and 7 say in the LToER, I would say a purchased Beast is tamed.
Page 6 "If they tame or buy another, the old one will wander off and be lost forever."
Page 7 "When they are bought or tamed, its level begins at (1).
If it wasn't already tamed when you purchase it, it wouldn't need to distinguish between being tame or being brought. It would say "If another is obtained, the old one will wander off" or "When tamed, its level begins at (1)."

Yes, they are tamed when purchased from a table.
Makes sense. Thanks.
