Why is Vyrso slighted by publishers?

I daily check the many free and discounted Christian ebooks offered. I see lots of promotions by a variety of publishers and distributors of ebooks. The publishers frequently have "Buy Now" buttons linked to usually 6 different ebook distributors.

Vyrso is hardly ever included in the selections. These are obviously publisher sponsored discounts available through other sources.

When I cross check the listings with Vyrso, I find most of them still at full price.

This disparity seems to have become more common over the last 6 months.

I try to make all my ebook purchases in Logos/Vyrso format.   

Is there a reasonable explanation?

    Edwin I have no official answer but I half suspect its purely a staffing issue. When Erin was around if it was not offered for the lower price she usually got it fixed within hours. Sad as it may be since Vyrso makes no money on these it is likely a low priority. Vyrso may have even requested the publishers to keep them out of these sales.

    I have wondered if staffing was the major problem.

    I just received an email from Vyrso with a free title and 3 sale titles (that I had seen already from other sources). So we know that someone is spending some time with Vyrso promotions.

    Unfortunately, 2 of the 4 titles still show at full price when you click on the links. [:$]

    I agree with Dan Francis

    When Erin Land was around things were much better at VYRSO.

    It is terrible how VYRSO has become so slighted and regulated to lower status.

    It has been corrected now so the correct price displays.

    Today Vyrso is included in the Buy Now button on David C Cook as source for 2.99 sale price of https://vyrso.com/product/55730/pastors-are-people-too

    But the link still show $10.19 as price!

    Cook lists Vyrso as a source for the 2.99 sale price https://vyrso.com/product/53317/survive-or-thrive-6-relationships-every-pastor-needs

    Vyrso shows $3.99 as the price.
