In WTP the Natives also slowly regenerate their money independently of you buying their goods. (Depends on the size of their tribe.)
But buying their cheap goods will of course help them to replenish their money faster. (Buying their cheap stuff is worth it for a long time in the game.)
You can easily trade with them until endgame if you also regularly buy the stuff they sell cheap.
Wiping a Native Village out is usually a very bad choice because you will miss all the other features they offer.
Generally considering Prices in Native Villages:
It depends on massive amount of factors: But mostly "their need for it" and their Attitude towards you.
Otherwise simply check the prices in Europe / Africa / Port Royal to see if it is worth to buy it.
Generally considering Goods:
Manage prices in Europe carefully and do not ruin them by "flooding" the market for a specific good too fast.
WTP wants you to think which goods to buy and which goods to sell. It more or less follows "normal market" rules.
------
Summary:
WTP is not a mod that offers simply "True / False" answers that are always correct. That would be boring.
Everything depends on other factors in the game that again depend partially on randomness but mostly on the decisions you took in your game.
