Default Question about TR Hall of Fame

Just a question....Was Tuneman ever inducted into the TR HoF? While I never had the chance to make a deal with him, everything I've ever heard was all rave reviews...Seems to me like he should be in the HoF, if he's not already...

Just something I was thinking about last night as I listed my new cards.

Agreed. I just checked the Hall of Fame page and I don't see him listed. He was a great trader, and you couldn't hope to encounter a nicer guy. He should definitely have a mention there...good idea.

i had a few trades w/ tony, i do agree that he should be inducted posthumously. I think we should have a memorial page for both josh rothstein and tony orgell.
This is something i've thought about as well, but never posted anything on it.

Correct me if Im wrong but isn't the Trader of the Month award named after Tuneman?? It was my understanding that is how he would be honored. But I would have to agree he should be in the HOF.

Tony was/is in the HOF. Him and Josh (I don't remember his TR ID though). Not sure why they aren't there anymore.

I thought after the fundraising TR had done for him and his family that HOF status was a given and that he was one even before his passing.

I think we're gonna see if we can get his plaque back up there. Can someone remind me what Josh's TR ID was? Calling the old school members for this one.

We had a great plaque but I had it saved on my old computer...I will have one made shortly.

Thanks for bringing this up Billy...
