how about:

select 
    product_id, 
    (
      select count(purchased)
      from some_table as A2
      where purchased=true and A1.product_id=A2.product_id
    ) as TP,
    (
      select count(selected)
      from some_table as A3
      where purchased=true and A1.product_id=A3.product_id
    ) as TS
from
  some_table as A1
group by
  product_id;
