Do covers sell the books?

It has been suggested to me that some of the new covers I put up for my ebooks, (which I freely admit were done on Amazon’s “design your own book cover”, ) scream “self published!!” and that there are some people out there who will on principle, not even click on a book that looks as if it is self published. As I am trying to generate more sales now, do you think it would be a good idea for me to get more professional looking covers designed? Discuss!
