Chris, he said do a web search, not an App Store search. They are still available on apple’s servers and in the App Store you just won’t fine it through a store search. For some reason they stop putting the old versions in your purchases When Sierra came out and thats why el cap is the last one you see there. But a web search should turn them up on apple’s server and then link you to the App Store to download the more recent ones. And Also, MacOS installed l licensed from your account wouldn’t work on his computer unless you were willing to sign in with your Apple ID. Anyways, here is the link you need for Mojave. Download and install from his machine.
