Any 1st hand experience w/ frozen syringes?

I have not been able to open my mailbox for the last 3-4 days because the lock was frozen shut. I finally got it open today to find a package from a reputable dealer that starts with an "H". Anyways, the spore syringes were frozen SOLID like an ice cube. I have searched around and it seems like they might be alright. But I was wondering if anyone had any firsthand experience with this issue, not just a guess. These could have been frozen up to 4 days by the way. Thanks for any help.

The *exact* same thing happened to me, I was hoping it'd be ok 
Sounds like we're safe.

I hope so, I'm just wondering if I should order more just to be safe. It would suck balls to prepare WBS, PC the jars, etc. then wait a week and not have any growth.

Here in Wisconsin it happens quite often too if ordered in the winter_ your all good as long as the syringe plastic casing didn't burst or crack

Cool, so what you guys think, would it be possible to store syringes in the deepfreezer?

LC syringes are a totally different thing - Spore syringes are just water with spores in it, so it kinda makes sense they can withstand freezing.
I'm not sure what happens to mycellium when it freezes, but I think it's pretty bad. So I'd assume freezing an LC syringe would be equally bad.
