Frozen syringe

My syringes came in the mail today and were frozen completely solid (it is winter time). I have not had to deal with this problem before. I have searched this topic and have read differing opinions amongst the years. Was wondering what people's experiences are at this juncture.

I'm no expert, but don't spores freeze outdoors in nature?? I'd bet they are fine....

I'm surprised that no one has asked this question before.
Oh, wait. They have: 
The search engine states that the general consensus is that summer heat is more damaging than winter freezing, so you should be fine.
However, some vendors have a "summer heat/winter freeze" replacement policy if the cell walls have ruptured from the freeze.

Thanks for the tip. I've read spores don't freeze in the winter, it's the mycelium networks that stay viable, producing more spores in summer. Also, Cubensis is a tropical species, less resistant to cold. This is all stuff I read I'm just looking for someone who's had this happen before and what the outcome was.

Freezing does not hurt spores. I've read it a hundred times, what hurts spores is going from cold temps to hot temps in a cycle repeatedly for months and months.
