Curious chap sure to buy (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

purchase

'to buy' is the definition.
(synonyms)

'curious chap sure' is the wordplay.
'curious' is an anagram indicator.
'chap'+'sure'='chapsure'
'chapsure' is an anagram of 'PURCHASE'.

(Other definitions for purchase that I've seen before include "Leverage" , "Procure" , "Spend some money" , "become an owner" , "Shop successfully" .)

I've seen this clue in The Daily Express.
