Hello! Recently I bought 17 pcs. of Antminer S5 from Russian reseller Igorgan1983 . A couple of days ago when the Internet access lost during the night, the temperature at hashing boards on 4 of miners was about 100-125 degrees, the fans was spinning at some minimum speed, so these 4 S5s has been burnt. After rebooting, the status of it's chips was -------. Now I sent all 4 units to reseller and he sent them to China. For shipping these miners back to China I will have to pay around 7000-8000 roubles.
 
Thereby, I have following questions:
 
1. Is it possible to compensate the shipping cost of transfer S5s to China?
2. Is it possible to accelerate the process of consideration of my case (there has been passed almost a week since the blades has arrived to China)?
3. Among the 17 S5s one has arrived to me in a used condition (blades version 1.7), I have already sent a pictures of it to you before - can it be replaced with completely new one?
4. When will be issued a firmware that fixes a bug with S5s overheating during the absence of the Internet access?

Known bug first reported by me in March 2015. I almost burnt up all my miners twice because of this. Then put my fans on direct. Any miners burnt up because of this bug should be replaced for free. Yoshi has helped me in the past, is he still around?
