Hello My first post here.
I have an Mid 2013 MacBookAir that I just erased and installed Big Sur on. It was running High Sierra for years. Well my Pages (and Numbers) are missing. I used them to send inventory updates to my old boss. He's a hard core MacMan. Well App Store only offers me the latest Pages version and that requires Sequoia. I need to find Pages 12.1 or older for my laptop. A copy straight from someones App folder will do, or point me to some where on the web to get a copy of Pages (and Numbers) 12.1 or older.

Thanks Matt
 
If you've purchased them before, they should show up in the App Store under your previous purchases. I don't have Big Sur nor have I ever used it, but going on the Sequoia App Store, the purchased apps are accessed by clicking your name in the bottom left of the window.
 
Check your purchase history. You should be able to download it from there if you "purchased" it before.
  1. In the App Store, click your name in the lower-left corner. Your previously purchased/downloaded apps will show here.
  2. Look for "Pages 14.5" in this list, and click the cloud icon to download.
  3. You should get a prompt to download the latest compatible version for Big Sur.
