Erick, I have experienced the same thing. It has been really bad lately. but "dry boxing" is only for cigars you are planning to smoke in the near future. What I have been doing for super wet boxes is to take all the cigars out!!! Check for mold on the bottom rows, especially with dress boxes. wipe off any mold and put the cigars in a humidor or tupperdor. They will acclimate on their own. For the boxes, leave them out of the humidor with the lids open for a week or so before putting the smokes back in. I would NOT recommend leaving the cigars themselves out of the humi unless you plan to smoke them all within 48-72 hours.
