Regarding refunds:

Payments to be made in BTC with the help of BitPay

Orders are taken in BTC, in the unlikely event we get to refunds they will be given in BTC.

HashFast guarantees that all "Baby Jet" units from our first production batch will be delivered by December 31, 2013.  If Buyer ordered one or more Baby Jet units, and HashFast does not deliver such units by that date, then Buyer may at his or her discretion, cancel the undelivered portion and HashFast will issue a full refund the payment for the units that Buyer purchased but did not receive and cancelled.

Seems pretty clear to me.

Now contrast that to the refund email from today:

As orders were priced in USD, refunds will be issued in the equivalent amount of USD. If a refund is to be paid in BTC, the USD to BTC market exchange rate on the date of refund will be used to calculate the amount of BTC to be refunded.

I think 'payment' is the keyword here. Not 'pricing'. Payments were made in BTC and HashFast committed to full payment refunds in the order confirmation.
