Adherence to Apple's Guidelines

Section 3.1.1 of Apple's app guidelines states,

"Apps offering 'loot boxes' or other mechanisms that provide randomized virtual items for purchase must disclose the odds of receiving each type of item to customers prior to purchase."

I see no percentages on any of the packs that are offered within the app. Ergo, it's cause to refund any in-app purchase, due to false pretenses.

  I would love to know the odds of things. For the Cauldon Of Coins, it says 1.19M to 3.57M. In my experience, it's usually around 1.6M, and I've never been over ~2.2M. Better yet, the Dolts/Nuts pack, it says 10-330 tokens. I've bought a dozen or so of these, and the highest I've got was 15, but it's usually 10 or 12. No where near 330.

  This alert was posted 9+ days ago and there has been no follow-up. Apple makes it pretty easy to report apps in violation of it's guidelines, though ...

  So when will we see the percentages for the packs in store?
