Two reasons:

- A friend busted a case, didn't get what was stated, and his shop owner called Panini. The QC guy at Panini stated that they'd been expecting this call, as someone in production told them "expect a lot of problems with this product".

- The stated odds, and what I've seen, are as follows:

• One Luxury Suite RC #'d 99 This has been in every case
• One Level 1 or Level 2 Rookie Treasure Rookie card per caseI've seen none
• One of the following per case (Rookie Silhouette #'d 99, Prime Rookie Silhouette #'d 25 or Rookie Treasure Patch #'d 15)I've seen 3 of 4 cases with a Silhouette and a Treasures patch, with the Treasures of someone crappy
• Two to Three Limited Phenoms Autographed Rookie cards per caseThis has been 3-4 per case
• One Autographed Ice Breaker Parallel per case3 seen in 4 cases

None of the cases had the guarantees, and multiple cases had completely bizarre assortments. There's also Freshman Fabric cards (from Certified), and those have been one per case.

I been in about 15 breaks of Anthology and the I can say in 11 out of those 15 breaks, the 1 card bonus pack was a NY Ranger Luxury Suite Stick/Jersey card. 3 of which were Derek Stepan. Of the remaining 4, 2 were Crown Royale Tomas Kubalik from the Blue Jackets Auto cards, and a Flyer and a Duck Luxury Suite Stick/Jersey cards.
It also seems like Ottawa gets a ton of hits (esp. Rookie Treasures)in the ones I've been in.

 So, I have had better luck this past month than I've had in years:

The Connolly and Kane are out of /25. I got all of them from random box breaks on ebay.
The Burmi printing plate and Buff logo were from a case break. The Burmi is a 1/1, of course, and the Buff is a /6. That case break was awesome. There was a PK Subban auto/patch pulled, a Rick Nash printing plate, and a Taylor Hall auto/patch that was serialed to /25.
Not shown are a Gabronik Silhouette, a Parise/Neidermeyer auto card, because both were redemptions.
Also not shown are a Ryan Ellis Silhouette and a RNH Certified auto/jersey, because shipping from Canada to Kentucky takes forever now.
I think my run might be over now, as I have hit nothing in the past week.
