Baen sells more from their own website, to be sure. But methinks they loom larger in the imagination of MR posters than they do in the book biz.
Some of Baen's authors may have put their eBooks up at Amazon (I don't know one way or the other). But the reason you're not finding Baen eBooks listed at Amazon is... because Baen doesn't sell their eBooks through Amazon (because Amazon won't let Baen choose no-DRM).

So it makes perfect sense that you're not finding their ebooks selling well in a store where those books aren't sold.
