They can really go either way--too wet if they were stored at a very high humidity and didn't dry out much during the trip, too dry if they were stored at "normal" conditions and did dry out. Either way, wet or dry, smokes arriving in the mail are not at the same conditions as the sticks inside your humidor that you're used to smoking, so let them rest a bit to equilibrate either way.
