Shipping your mining gear back to China for repair isn't the best idea, shipping to and from China will cost a lot, or your miner could be "
confiscated" by the manufacturer.
I thought there should be a list of good repair services that all miners can access locally based on their geographical location, this will ensure a cheaper shipping rate and a much faster repair process.
I will be updating the list regularly as information come by, if you have or know a repair service please share it here or send it to me via pm, I will try to do some basic research on all the services I list here, but you will deal with them at your own risk.
Inputs coming from trusted members of the mining community in Bitcointalk will be very helpful.

It's unlikely that someone will go to this extremes measure to scam, also since these providers are nearby, it would make sense that you could actually visit them in real life to confirm their integrity, while I wouldn't blindly trust them, I believe they are likely legit, but you MUST dyor.
