just asking since most could use this as a way to not give credit where its do

That depends entirely on the terms of the agreement. But buying gift-art or commissions never grants you the right to lie about their origins. That means if you're posting it here on AO: you still need to credit the artist (since non-credited work is considered to be your own). No self-respecting artist will create something for you to take credit for as your own work. Generally speaking: you are purchasing the right to choose the work's subject matter, style, and the right to display it wherever you like (if not the original hard-copy itself).
