I hate terraclips and would advise you to avoid them like the plague.
They take forever to assemble, are flimsy, the clips look awful, not very modular, don't make a 3x3 and expensive.
You're better off with a shoebox with half a dozen nice pieces in it.

Final table looks like a days work with coffee stirrers and foam board with a bit of card and emulsion paint added.

Terraclips aren't actually that bad...but the reality is you're much better off gluing them as permanent buildings than using the clips. It's not modular unless you feel like spending 2 hours setting up...and an hour disassembling everytime you play.
Used "incorrectly" they made some excellent card buildings. However I also got mine at around 50% of the retail price on a crazy year long pre-order...so my opinion is probably biased.
Are you looking for a permanent board or a mobile/modular board?

Can you tell me, where I can order them?
For example, Terraclips website sends me to Wyrd games and there page's not found.
Do you know any alternatives? Like gaming mats, for example.
You "found" some amazing examples at warzone40k.com? Teena Hancock, do you work for warzone40k.com? Every one of your posts contains a link to that site. Where can you order them? Well, you know, just 2 days ago you were trying to get people to visit warzone40k.com and buy gaming mats there, and even offering a coupon code. ( http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/696248.page) This post reads like you're waiting for someone to jump in and say, "Oh, I got an awesome gaming mat from warzone40k.com!".
You're silly.

Well, if you check my profile, you can see that I'm working for warzone 40k and I don't conceal it.
But that doesn't mean that I can't be interested in terrain ideas,as a designer right? We have a large team and I, [ersonnaly don't post anything on website itself. So, what's so surprising about that I find ideas on the site, I work for?
And what's so awful that I post coupones and adds in the topic for adds?
Don't understand the point here.

Your post struck me as a for-profit company posing as a gamer who is trying to drive traffic to their company website. In general, your posts don't come across as a gamer who happens to be working for a company that's in the gaming hobby industry, but rather as a company who is posing as a gamer to generate sales. While it's true in your profile you mention your affiliation with warzone40k.com, this post in particular read as a thinly veiled attempt to generate traffic.
I'm not a Mod, I have no power to tell you to stop doing what you're doing, but you rub me the wrong way. Perhaps I have the wrong idea. Maybe it's a cultural thing. If I have classified you wrongly, I apologize.
Have a nice day.

I liked the idea of Terraclips, but never got any. I saw one guy invest in a lot and try to build a full table and ended up bending half of the card walls and stuff trying to get things to line up right. Seemed like a huge headache.
Honestly, there's dozens of companies making great looking laser cut wood buildings these days. 4Ground is probably my favorite at the moment. The best way I found to get a good looking skirmish table going is to just fill it up with lots of buildings, it's quick and easy and it looks & plays great.
