A box of cigars is a box of cigars if it's full of the cigars that came in it.
If it's been opened, then it's a full open box of cigars.
If I sell a box of 2006 Anejos and some are 2005, it ain't a box of 2006 Anejos.
Once it's empty, it's just a box.
For me, it's time to get another box once the first one comes out. That way the others are getting ready for when the open box is getting smoked.
I'm not sure what MOBD is talking about, but if it's a train full of cigars, I get to cherry pick. I called it first.
