Annotation:

This means that I don't belive something that someone says.
It's very unlikely to have the literal meaning of "purchase" in this tense.

Related:

Some of these could be a bit ambiguous and also literally mean to purchase something.
However, some of them don't have, or at least are much less likely to have, the literal meaning.
