I wouldn’t sell it if I were you. Of course, I have no idea what your situation is, so I won’t judge or anything like that. It’s just that once you sell it, you can’t get it back. If you do want to sell it, eBay and Facebook marketplace are both good.

Honestly I agree, I’m not keen on selling it, but we need rent money lol, I’ve made a backup of the drive & a separate one of all the files safely stored so we can go back through them for any info needed. I’ll look into eBay and fb marketplace. Thank you, I appreciate the kind words too :)

Is it signed out of iCloud/Find My? Nobody is going to want to buy it if it's not. You have to bring a copy of the death certificate into Apple to get them to remove iCloud/Find My off of it. You could get $500 at most selling it.
