I bought an new iphone 7 plus with sealed box and the Serial Number Does not match with box but IMEI number matches with the box, Does this Mean the phone is not Factory Sealed original?
iPhone 7 Plus
You've been scammed.
It could easily be a stolen device.
Return it for a refund, if possible.
Not really, but you can go here https://checkcoverage.apple.com and see what the warranty status is.
It is doubtful it is a packaging error. It is very easy to reseal a box.
If you're not buying from an Apple retailer there is no way to know if it's even a real iPhone under there. and if the Ser# does not match the box I'm guessing it's not from even from Apple.
What was the purchase date? Was it the day you bought it? And not there isn't.
When does it show the warranty ending?
It was in a sealed box and looks completely new. IMEI Number matches with the Box, the Thing which does not match with the Box is the Serial Number,
Could that be a packaging or numbering error from Factory or its not Apple factory Sealed?
did you buy it from Apple or a licensed Apple retailer; like Bestbuy, or Target, or Wallmart
or did you buy it from a 3rd party reseller like Amazon, or eBay or a guy in a van?
I bought from a local Online Seller
Is there any way to identify it has been used before?
Shows valid Purchase for both serial number in iphone and the Box, Is there any way to find out it was used before and resealed?

Take it back, that iPhone was sold over a year ago which is why it shows your one-year warranty has expired.
Serial Number Does not match with box but EMEI number Matches
