And they took my payment on November 19th.
Same here, unframed and still in "shipping soon" state...

Generally speaking, polypropylene sleeves are thin. PVC are ticker but can damage prints overtime. Only keep the card if it is acid free. If the card insert is a problem, replace it with acid free paper. Any weight is fine. 300 gsm makes it easier/safer to turn pages compared to 80 gsm. It's main purpose is to prevent the backs of prints directly touching.

Overtime, the print will flatten inside the portfolio. I keep a sheet of foam board in the front and back sleeve of mine, to keep everything evenly sandwiched.

So inside the plastic portfolio slip, leave the cardboard inside if it and slip the print in with an acid free paper In between?

Is the white thin tissue paper acid free that came with the kier print? Is that what you are talking about?

You could do that or if the cardboard is acid free, the paper won't be necessary. You mentioned having difficulty slipping in the print which is why I suggested removing the cardboard and just using paper.

Yes it is (or should be) but I was thinking of larger paper the size of the sleeve. Only because it would look nicer.

Is it dangerous to keep rolled prints in their tube for days? Do they risk to get damaged?

Days is fine. Once you start going for months with heavy paper that's when you run into problems. But I haven't seen the paper Sideshow is using for these prints yet.
