I just sold a house in the US and the thought of listing it ourselves did cross my mind, but in the end we used an agent and they did _everything_ for us while I was out of the country, and got us a great price. In the end the amount of commission we paid to our agent (3%) didn't feel excessive at all since I barely had to lift a finger (besides moving). Now, 3% for the buyer's agent? _that_ felt excessive.
