If you have a legitimately urgent question for TerraHash, I recommend contacting them directly instead of posting here. They are pretty responsive to customer service inquiries in my experience.
I personally have had mixed experiences with them on questions. I wont bore you with details, but i hope you guys got better service then me.
any update on them shipping?
No, defintely not on shipping yet,,,still waiting to hear if paypal orders are still in or not?
I think PayPal uses a very heavy handed approach in dealing with sellers and merchants. I have used PaPal as an ebay seller and to send funds from one PayPal user account to another. If you are a new seller on ebay, PayPal will hold your funds in escrow for a minimum of 21 days. Whether you ship the item in a timely manner or not; whether you ship products that are exactly as advertised, PayPal will hold new seller funds in escrow for 21 days.
I recently sent money from my Canadian PayPal account to my US PayPal account. This transaction is taking approx. 14 days to complete (the funds cleared from my bank in 2 business days). Both my accounts are in good standing and I have had both PayPal accounts for several years. Why is PayPal doing this? Because they can.
What deeply concerns me is PayPal reserves the right to do this: "Payments received in your Account may be reversed at a later time, for example, if such a payment is subject to a Chargeback, Reversal, Claim or is otherwise invalidated."
Even more disturbing, "We may close, suspend, or limit your access to your Account or the PayPal Services, and/or limit access to your Balance for up to 180 Days (or longer if pursuant to a court order or other legal process)"
The two clauses are in PayPal's current PayPal User Agreement: https://cms.paypal.com/us/cgi-bin/?cmd=_render-content&content_ID=ua/UserAgreement_full&locale.x=en_US
I would be quite reserved in believing that Terrahash will find a favorable response from PayPal in reagards to having their funds released. There is no benefit for PayPal to move quickly on this matter. Interest is accruing in PayPal's favor each and every day.
It makes me firmly believe that a technology like bitcoin is long overdue to free us from the abuse of companies like PayPal.
Who here is letting terrahash host for you?
It's 16 cents per killowatt here, so I thought it was worth it for my single board.
Anyone know the details of their mining pool? Any fees besides flat monthly?
Will people who let terrahash host for them get their coins a few days earlier due to a lack of shipping?

That's my plan. They charge too much for electricity in my area. Hopefully $10 per board/month is all I have to pay. They say a nominal fee and every 2-3 days you will get your coins sent to you per hash power. Sounds good to me.
I might call TH and check the details. Thinking of getting out of this if pay pal holds up things too much. Plus Bit Coin is going down lately and I could just buy the coins with no risk.

Its almost 5 there if I'm not correct. Not a single update..... interesting.
yep! 4pm now..
BKKCoins is still refining his prototype. With at least one new version of the PCB layout to be made. Think there's still a window before BKKCoins becomes part of the critical path again, and start effecting shipping dates.

How do you know what batch you are in?
I didn't know for sure. I was going off the spreadsheet someone posted earlier in the thread which has some reasonable estimations.
For me it was a combination of my own risk discipline, my existing commitment to Avalon hardware already, and my own delays in placing my order.
Once I saw where my small order was in the queue, it was more valuable to me to see if a BTC payment would be refunded than to see if I would be in batch 3 or 4. Which it was.
