When do we use 'I don't buy it'? 'I don't buy it' has the same meaning with 'I don't agree with this or that idea'. I'm confused how to use that sentence because it's unusual for me. I meant why should I use 'I don't buy it" but in the other hand, 'I don't agree with that' is more clearly to say. Please correct me if I'm wrong. Thank you.

Actually, it means 'I don't believe it'. We say this when we don't believe something...especially if we believe that someone is lying about something.

Your instinct is right. Don't use it, though you should understand that it means "I don't believe it." It is so much clearer, and always safer, to say "I don't believe it." In an exam, you may have marks deducted for using "I don't buy it."

It is a little bit more like saying "I don't believe it". It is kind of a slang expression, and usually means that you think the other person is not telling the truth.
