Yeah it involves humidity. The flattening process will also take out any creases.

I dunno about that man. That's a pretty broad statement. I keep my prints tubed simply because I don't want to pay the kind of money a flat file or presentation case would run me when they'd simply be temporarily housed there until I can afford to frame them. I'm sure a lot of people do the same and aren't what most would qualify as flippers.
I do agree that Mondo prints shouldn't really be rolled to begin with though.

$75 for the flattening process itself and $40 for return shipping as its shipped back flat. Well worth it in my case given the print in question fetches upwards of $1500 on the secondary.

Having Poster Mountain ship my print back flat was a concern of mine. That was until I saw pics of how well protected they are. Obviously you're paying for it at $40 though, but I was impressed.
