Can I sell a locked MacBook Air Intel (2020)?
It depends on the lock. Carrier locks are accepted.

We never buy or unlock devices for anyone who is not the owner. The same rule holds for any MacBook Air Intel (2020) with model number A2179, bought new or used.

MacBook Air Intel (2020) locked questions
How much is a locked MacBook Air Intel (2020) worth?
A MacBook Air Intel (2020) in like-new shape currently prices at up to $260. Once the lock is cleared, the lock itself does not lower the price; condition, storage and battery do. Each MacBook Air estimate draws on this month's resale data for that configuration, and your condition answers refine it before anything is shipped.
Which MacBook Air Intel (2020) storage sizes can I sell?
All of them: 256GB, 512GB, 1TB and 2TB, across Core i3 dual-core 1.1GHz, Core i5 quad-core 1.1GHz and Core i7 quad-core 1.2GHz. Higher storage raises the offer in every condition. The quickest check is the About screen, under Settings on iPad and iPhone or the Apple menu on a Mac, which names the model, year and chip.
Does the MacBook Air Intel (2020) have Activation Lock?
Yes. It stays tied to the owner's Apple Account until Find My is turned off or the device is removed at icloud.com/find. Signing the MacBook Air out of its Apple Account drops it from Find My, and that is what lifts Activation Lock for the next user. Activation Lock is checked during pricing and again on the bench, so switching it off early keeps the MacBook Air sale moving.
How do I get paid for my locked MacBook Air Intel (2020)?
Choose PayPal, Zelle or Bank transfer (ACH) when you accept. After testing confirms the MacBook Air Intel (2020) matches your answers, payment is sent within 2 business days after your device passes inspection. If anything differs you get a revised offer first and can decline it for a free return.
Do you buy carrier-locked devices?
Yes. Pick the carrier in the quote. Carrier-locked units must be paid off and free of blacklist reports, which we check by IMEI before sending a label. Activation Lock is tied to the Apple Account still signed in on the Apple device; signing out removes it and frees the device for its next owner.
