My theory is, if you bought the full box, you own it. Does not matter how many you have smoked.

Is his math or wording correct?

If his wording is true, then I only have 3 boxes.

I tried using that Fuzzy Math with my wife
Yeah, she didn't buy it.

So, if I open a PSD4 box and consume 1 or 2 cigars, do I still have a box?

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.

I fully admit Bryan is right if you are counting boxes in terms of the ability to sell.
For me, who does not intend to sell partial boxes, if I purchase and smoke a few out of the box, I still consider myself having a box.

Just my opinion

For me: (ok I may be splitting hairs here)

I have a full box until it has been opened.

I have a partial box until I move the remaining gars to the singles drawer.
