I haven't checked but I doubt the packaged is preservative free.
Leaving cold-cuts in the fridge too long, like anything else, would start to go bad. I would think preservatives would "preserve" them longer though—not the other way around.
Any meat on bread, especially with lettuce is going to moisten. I've packed sandwiches for long road trips and for some flights.
I just prefer to get my sliced the way I like—thin. Packaged stuff is too thick and rubbery.
