Here's some friendly advice: don't ever use the end of a paper clip to test whether there is a glass seal inside that nipple. The little pop you hear is the sound of magic gas escaping. It's fragile...

Well, my bad then. I actually have a few of these somewhere that I know work, but I never noticed them looking like these. My apologies to the group. And thanks for all of the quick feedback !!

The glass seal is actually sucked into the stem that you are seeing. I've bought from this seller and they are used but worked fine. I paid less than the listing price.
