It was from a proper bricks n mortar store that said 'Dish Network? $199 Just buy the box...' IN HUGE NEON LETTERS IN THE WINDOW...

Ya they were and still are perfectly legal, as long as they didn't sell them with the firmware already updated to the hacked version. Lots of stores did though. Some would just sell you the receiver and you had to update the firmware yourself at home.

Kinda surprised they haven't hacked Nagra 3 yet using the old firmware method.
