Davy Jones' Locker is a nautical legend, shrouded in mystery and superstition, and often used as a symbol of the dangers and uncertainties of the sea. The origins of the term are unclear, but it is generally believed to have originated in the 18th century, during the golden age of piracy. The set tries to capture this aspect of the legend!

More

Davy Jones' Locker is a term that has captured the imaginations of sailors and landlubbers alike for centuries.
The term "Davy Jones' Locker" refers to the bottom of the sea, where the drowned bodies of sailors and the wreckage of sunken ships are said to rest. In nautical lore, it is believed that those who die at sea are doomed to spend eternity at the bottom of the ocean, trapped in a watery grave. This idea has been perpetuated in literature, music, and film, where Davy Jones' Locker is often portrayed as a terrifying and haunting place, full of lost souls and cursed treasure.

The origins of the name "Davy Jones" are unclear, but there are many theories. Some believe that it is derived from the name of a real-life sailor or pirate, while others think that it may be related to the biblical figure of Jonah, who was swallowed by a whale. Still, others believe that it may have originated from the French word "d'avoir" which means "of having," suggesting that those who end up in Davy Jones' Locker have lost everything they once possessed.

Mechs&Co is live now.  Just ordered the whole set

[SxM Designs]

Due to the recent issues in the community, Mechs and Co has decided to step down as the US vendor for this set.

Vendors were selected months back before any drama unfolded and sadly I am on vacation when it did. So following everything was not possible.

We  have decided to cancel GMK Davy Jones' Locker for the time being for the sake of the customers.

I would actively search for a more responsible US vendor before attempting to run this again.

People who has supported will be refunded by their respective vendors.

[Morbii]

Noooo!!!!!!

I'm wondering if other pre-orders are at risk now too?  What happened with the vendor?

[SxM Designs]

I am not sure but yeah they have locked down their discord. Communication is tough right now.

[norb]

sad to hear, but better safe than sorry. my june-funds will go elsewhere then 

[SxM Designs]

Yep. We will reaarange new US vendor and retry again in a while.. Maybe even bring in some small changes.
