Yeah, I'd have to agree. Indie is technically supposed to mean independent. Now, obviously publishing completely by one's own means (including fabrication) is all but impossible. Still, most everything in indie publishing is done or at least arranged by the author: marketing, editing, proofing, artwork, and so on.
Even if it's a small house, then they still should be offering these services without charging a fee. That doesn't really count as indie.
