You're 100% right -- that is, a seat shown as unavailable could mean "sold" or ir could mean "off sale". The latter designation would apply to all of the company and theatreowner house seats that only get released (if unsold) at 4 days prior to the performance. Nowadays, if it's a hit show, most released house seats then get moved into premium. But if a show doesn't have the premium seat demand, those house seats get released for general sale and that's why those good seats often end up available at full regular price at the last minute. Very rare that you can ever get them at a discount, though.
