Of course, there are some books that no publisher wants because they are considered unmarketable but which are still very good... My favorite serie has been out of print for years (last tome didn't make it to the public) because it is (the author told me):
- too short for adult (novel) fiction
- too long to be considered short-stories
- main character is adult (so not YA fiction)
- too dark to be children / teen fiction

Those are actual answers from publishers... I wouldn't hesitate for one minute to buy it if it were self-published.
