    local clone = item:Clone()

    clone.Parent = player.Backpack
    SPclone.Parent = player.StarterGear
end) --// This

You forgot to close the function with an end)

When you have a function with a remote event as you have above, buy.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(player,price) there should be an end at the end of the remote event, because it's technically a function now. Try this:

buy.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(player, price)
	local points = player:FindFirstChild("leaderstats"):FindFirstChild("Points")
	local item =  RS:WaitForChild("Gravity Coil")
	points.Value = points.Value - price
	local clone = item:Clone()
	local SPclone = item:Clone()
	clone.Parent = player.Backpack
	SPclone.Parent = player.StarterGear
end)

Hope this helped and happy coding!
