One who tolerates free furs being distributed (8)
I believe the answer is:
sufferer
'one who tolerates' is the definition.
(someone who suffers things)
'free furs being distributed' is the wordplay.
'being distributed' indicates anagramming the letters.
'free'+'furs'='freefurs'
'freefurs' with letters rearranged gives 'SUFFERER'.
(Other definitions for sufferer that I've seen before include "One in agony" , "One experiencing something unpleasant" .)
