This is in Germany, no? You never know, but 1 thing to recognize is business would probably suffer pretty good if they were peddling fakes somewhere people don't have to travel far or look hard to acquire authentic merchandise. Secondly, I think regulators & purveyors of legit merchandise would be all over their you know whats. Think about it. Germany isn't exactly the every man for himself Caribbean or Mexico.

My guess, (assuming the location is where I imagine it, and based on the limited info the picture provides) these are probably legit. I'd further bet CptnBlues63 was correct, in that their customer base, or at least the purpose of that particular display is to serve SINGLES. If that much is logical - opening all the boxes would also be logical. If it's not for letting the cigars breath out of the God-awful cardboard & humidification purposes, it also gives customers a variety of choices, perhaps multiple factories or an opportunity to select to personal aesthetic preference.

I don't know about you guys but they'd have to only have (1) box there for me to NOT wonder if the additional "unopened" boxes had better looking / smelling / more preferable factory codes / dates etc. and not want to rip em' all open myself to inspect & speculate.
