Where to sell a broken iPad?

Hi,
Today I dropped my iPad mini, the screen has shattered (cracks all over it) but the touch still works everywhere, and also the iPad seems to work fine.
I've looked to sell it on ebay, they seem to go for >£100.
But then I found https://www.ipaqrepair.co.uk who seem to be offering £167
This seems to good to be true, can anyone vouch for them? Or offer any alternatives?
I don't really want to go down the repair route, as I'd rather buy a cheaper tablet, (Hudl (tesco) or MyTablet (argos))
Thanks,

You'll get a lot more if it's repaired and as it still works it sounds like all you need is the front glass. Cheap as chips and you more than get your money back if you intend to sell it.

I don't think I've got the technical skills to replace it. And I've been told you can end up making things a lot worse.
I've been offered £60 from mazuma, which is far too low.0 -
See if you have a local shop which can replace the glass for you, costs more than doing it yourself, but you will get your money back when it comes to selling0

Check with Apple as they used to do a swap out for £1000
