Said to be sold when repaired (5)
I believe the answer is:
soled
'repaired' is the definition.
(soling is a kind of repairing)
'said to be sold' is the wordplay.
'said to be' shows a homophone (sound like).
'sold' sounds like 'SOLED'.
'when' acts as a link.
(Other definitions for soled that I've seen before include "Repaired shoe" , "Pulled at one time" .)
I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
