Purchased a '09 iMac early last year and he also gave me the Airport Extreme 802.11n WiFi.
Century Link is my internet provider, I now own two iPads and an Apple TV that I use throughout the rest of the house.
I live alone and my office is in the basement and the iMac has an Epson Artisan 800 wired to it.
Is there any reason for me not to sell the AirPort?

You don't need it as long as you already have a router for your installation to handle both wired and wireless devices.
Assuming that the AirPort Extreme is also a 2009 model, it might bring $20-30 or so on Ebay, although I did notice a few 2013 AirPort Extreme's going for $25.
I entered the model number on Ebay and see some for sale for up to $210. How do I know what generation it is?

Umm, a brand new AirPort Extreme from Apple is less than $200, and it comes with a new factory warranty. A used AirPort Extreme has no warranty at all.
A quick 10 second check on Ebay revealed this, for example:
The A1408 model that you see above is a 2012-2013 model. Your AirPort is a 2009 or 2010 model, so at best, it might bring $20 tops if you still have the box, original packing, manual, etc.
Look on the bottom of your AirPort Extreme and locate the model number. It starts with an "A" followed by four numbers. Post back with that, and we'll tell you a bit more about the product.
Any Reason To Keep My AirPort Extreme?
