Had bought two YT but there is no issue up until now. However be careful. To prove ownership you will need to buy everything from gmail account to any copyrighted material within their channel.

Don't worry; it's legal to purchase and sell YouTube channels, and individuals have been doing so for quite some time. There are a lot of businesses out there that have established their image on YouTube by buying a variety of existing channels.

Already purchased a Youtube channel and didn't get any issues but it's against the TOS of youtube.

It's not against Youtube's terms of service, and it's not illegal. There is no script in the Tos that indicates that this situation is contrary.
Youtube is about this:
He states that he will not be an intermediary in any way regarding trading for the channel and Adsense, as well as in any disputes between partners. In other words, youtube allows it indirectly.

Are there any place or guidelines (preferably the support youtube website or any trustworthy website) where youtube says it is Legal to buy youtube channels from other people/creators?

Was reading a thread and people said should buy channels from the same country you are located, so that's weird, cuz if youtube allows to buy channels why they should be from the same country people are located?
just don't make it obvious, its okay to buy and sell bro

They have not announced that they allow this but people are doing this already. You can also buy from others or sell to others.

YouTube's terms of service prohibit the buying and selling of YouTube channels. To buy channels from the same country you are located in, this may be related to legal and regulatory requirements in different countries, Some countries may have laws or regulations that prohibit the transfer of certain types of assets across borders
