Thanks for adding the CL here! You should be happy that you alone got it done in about the same amount of time that an entire team at Beckett could get it listed. Beckett is getting so...
...either lazy, overwhelmed, overstretched or all of the previous. It took them over 2 months to put BV's on the 2019 Donruss Racing BASE CARDS!!! And they still want my money. Not getting it with these massively slow rates they are moving at these days. They are now so overwhelmed, incompetent, lazy or inconsiderate that they still can't list items on their site EVEN when I give them everything they need to add any item to their DB. I gave them complete scans and info about a card they didn't have listed about a year ago. Even though they sent me an email last Fall saying it would be added in a few days, it's still not there. They also never added a parallel set (from 1991) that I told them about well over a year ago, even though they sent me an email saying it would be added soon too. If it wasn't for the forums and the Fantasy NASCAR Game I run through them, I wouldn't even be on Beckett anymore. They don't even bother with "set info" on product CL's anymore. They are so completely lazy! I could run a better site if I had a tech guy. That might be why they won't add me as a moderator there, even though the current racing mod hasn't been on the site for about 2 years. Every member of the Racing Forum has openly said that I should be the Racing Mod there. But Beckett doesn't even read the forum threads anymore. SO LAZY!!! Enough of that rant. I'll stop here.
Thanks again for adding the CL buddha!

Thank you! I'm glad to see someone was able to add this. I just got a couple packs of these recently and was eager to add to my collection.

I'm going to reevaluate how I collect after the new year. It's just getting way too expensive for the new stuff. Sometimes I just want to buy a pack, not a whole box or even blaster. |

No idea, but they make snacks like chips and pretzels and such. They have a major distribution center about 10 miles from my house.

They are based out of SE Pennsylvania, between Harrisburg and Philadelphia (Hanover, to be precise), commonly known as "Pennsylvania Dutch country". Funny thing - they weren't Dutch (from Holland) but rather deutsch (German). You will find many German names in the area, many of them ending with the letter "z". Utz is, in fact, the founders' last name (Bill and Salie Utz).
And Utz snacks have always been quite good! (But I was rather local!)

I’ve always liked Utz. I also missed getting sports trading cards in snack packages!

I agree that they make pretty tasty products. They are pretty easy to find here in NC. I'm sure that's due to the plant in Gibsonville. They are found in grocery & convenience stores, school and business vending machines, ball parks and stadiums, Interstate rest areas, and so on.

Robert “It breaks your heart. It is designed to break your heart. The game begins in the spring, when everything else begins again, and it blossoms in the summer, filling the afternoons and evenings, and then as soon as the chill rains come, it stops and leaves you to face the fall alone. You count on it, rely on it to buffer the passage of time, to keep the memory of sunshine and high skies alive, and then just when the days are all twilight, when you need it most, it stops. Today, October 2, a Sunday of rain and broken branches and leaf-clogged drains and slick streets, it stopped and summer was gone.”

total number of cards in set needs to be added to this set. Doesn't show it. No release date there either.
