Translation: We are buying eggs from this man.

I do I know 'od' means from and not for in the context of this sentence?

[tadjanow]

'We are buying eggs for this man' would be 'Kupujemy jajka dla tego mężczyzny'.

[iamZemmi]

ok, thanks!

Maybe it's just me, but I don't hear the 'k' at the beginning, and the p sounds like a b. I just hear 'ubujemy'.

What case of meżczyzna is "meżczyzny"? Accusative? Duolingo doesn't telle unfortunately...

[BenConway6]

It's in the genitive case. Words following 'od' are in the genitive, which changes a final 'a' to 'y', or in some nouns 'i'.
