The disappointments, one gets rid of (5)
I believe the answer is:
sells
'one gets rid of' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
I don't understand how the rest of the clue works.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for sells that I've seen before include "Retails" , "Exchanges for payment" , "Vends" , "Markets" , "Flogs" .)
