I haven't actually noticed a lot of those with missing cabinet tops, but if it is missing I'm sure it's just because it got lost at some point. That top panel is designed to be easily removable on the 630TS and many other 630-style sets. The removable top is not just a convenience though-- it's almost a necessity for servicing. Otherwise, you'd have to pull the chassis to gain access to some of the tubes, and since the CRT is partially supported by the cabinet, the CRT has to be removed in order to pull the chassis from the cabinet. Also, due to the way the cabinet is designed, you have to remove the top before removing the front bezel/frame, which you also need to do before removing the CRT.

Anyway, even with the missing top, that's a bargain at the $9 bid price! Hopefully someone here can get it..!
