Possession + Ending condition

I don't know if this question got already answered somewhere, but I just played a game where I could buy the last province but would've lost and had a possession in hand. I didn't know if I could buy the province and still get the possession turn. So I buyed two Duchies and I've had the luck that I could forge a Province with the hand of my opponent. So: Was it possible to buy the province anyway and get the possession turn or would I've lost?

The rules say the game is over on the turn the Province pile is emptied, so IMO the Possession turn would not have happened if you had bought the last Province.

I believe the FAQ for Possession clears this up, but without quoting anything, the official rules are that the game would have ended before the possession turn had you bought the last Province.

Thanks for clarification. I would've answered the same, but I wanted to hear that from the experts.  ;D
