Selling on ebay


So many things in life aren't as easy as they seem. I tried pushing some items on Ebay about a week ago, and nothing sold! What's all the hype about "selling on ebay", "selling on ebay"? The only thing that came of that exercise was a whole bunch of selling fees. Someone even tried to scam me out of a camera worth close to a thousand Dollars! A Canon Rebel EOS XT 8 megapixels, SLR professional camera, for goodness sake!
Am I missing something here? My listings clearly stated that I would not ship any item outside of the USA, but lo and behold, then came this fella who won the camera with a last minute bid and some phoney shipping address somewhere in Ibadan, Nigeria. I had barely finished dancing that my item finally sold, when ebay contacted me that I was being scammed.
Well, that's my pain! Anybody know how to sell stuff on ebay?
