Missing a seal probably just means it's been opened, meaning it's not under warranty.

The Elites were the ones I think that started with the cooler hardware and supposedly fewer RRODs. Premiums now have that same benefit as well, but I don't know if there's a reliable way of telling one without opening it.

If the seal is broken, maybe it's been opened, modded, and then banned from XBox live? So possibly it works fine but can never get on live. Something to watch for anyway.
