SOP. It is in my experience easier if you have Network Hardware arrange the smartnet as well when you buy it, otherwise cisco might have you do something like send them a picture of the serial number on the card or something crazy like that (I've heard). I buy used/rfb all the time from my VAR (world data products), no issues with support other the occasional mistaken serial number because someone typed it wrong that will happen irrespective of anything else. Network Hardware should be no different.
And sometimes buying used is the only option because you can't buy it new from Cisco because they're out of stock. :I > How does Cisco handle Smart Nets for used equipment ?
