This Flip Mat looks fantastic and may be more versitile than you imagined. Looking at your preview it looks like I can use my MapPack; Village-Market Place to overlay the central portion of the map and create different market layouts. (Preferably with the PC's chasing a thief through the market that is now different then they remember.) Was this intentional? (If it was not, somebody should take credit anyways.) You might want to think about making another Map pack with smaller size shops than your Map Pack: City that can fit on the Flip Mat:City Market. Then the whole thing can be customizable. (I might buy a second flip mat and a scissors and do it myself) Nice synergy between your products also.
This is my second flip-map purchase, and I am concerned about my ability to get full utility from it.
How do you get them to lay flat nicely? The bending required for packaging and storing makes it so it doesn't want to lay flat. Which makes it hard to use in conjunction with our miniatures.
And we're not using prepainted plastic. These are real pewter minis and they have some weight to them (though some aren't that well balanced to begin with).
Any suggestions from others who have bought this product?

The key here is to reverse the folds that the map originally has. If you do this a few times (folding it back and forth), it should lay nice and flat.
Hope that helps.

On game day an hour or so before everyone gets here I take out all my Flip-Maps and do as Jason suggested and then put then lay them down the opposite way of the fold on a flat hard surface. I might even put something like my remote controls on them to make sure they flatten out.
By the time my players arrive my maps are ready to go and I throw out there whatver I need for that day. I used this one for the opening scene of Burnt Offerings.
Enjoy
