Is the sony fe 50mm f 2 5 g worth buying used?

Yes, I think it's a good used buy. Lenses hold up well, and photographers upgrade often, so the used market is one of the best ways to afford good gear. My buying used guide covers this in more detail.

The Sony FE 50mm f/2.5 G is a 50mm prime with autofocus but no stabilisation. On full frame Sony E bodies it frames as a standard 50mm, and on APS-C it acts like a 75mm. Most Sony E cameras from the a7 onward take it, so check that your body is on the list on its page.

I don't list prices, so compare against recent sold listings yourself. Check the glass for fungus or scratches, test the autofocus, and if you're buying a body alongside it, budget for a new battery.
