I would be very disappointed if I received folded instructions that were originally
unfolded. You are basically damaging the product. I would strongly advise against
doing this.
Cheers,

| What about a large roll? no creasing?
I guess one could always contact the buyer and ask what they prefer, creased
instructions with cheaper shipping or pristine and pay a little more?

I sell a lot of instructions.
Its very important to not fold them. In fact you may want to include a backing
board, even if this raises your shipping cost.

Short answer is NO, but never introduce folds just to make shipping easier.
- Some small instructions are pre-folded by Lego and need to be left in that
original format.
- Others are perfectly in a half fold from Lego (these I unfold and package),
describing the 1/2 fold in description of item.
- Last are folds due to box / packaging damage / movement, and need to be listed
as Used with description of quality.
Hope this answered your question.

You can use a larger poly mailer with some cardboard as a backing board.

If you must fold them then disclose it.
