Preferred resale type?

Depends on the source of the cigars, would prefer to have the box sealed but am now starting to open all boxes due to a beetle outbreak recently.

My preference is for sealed, but as long as the cigars are fine it really doesn't make a difference.

I want them to be opened so there are no surprises. I always ask non-US vendors to open and inspect the cigars before they ship them out as well.
