Put out without a note as second-hand (4)
I believe the answer is:
used
'second-hand' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
I can't explain the remainder of the clue.
(Other definitions for used that I've seen before include "worked unfairly" , "taken advantage of!" , "Dues (anag.)" , "like majority of cars?" , "Dog-eared" .)
