If you're a brand new eBay user and you have high-priced items, you may not get as high final bids because people are suspicious of new users. So it can take some dedication to get started on eBay (i.e. buying some items to get feedback, then selling smaller items first and getting feedback for them).
But, once you are established and if you can work within the system, I find it to be pretty painless and easy. Personally, I can't stand dealing with flakely Craigslist buyers (maybe because I'm in a big city). I still list large items on Craigslist first, but often end listing them on eBay, or donating them, or tossing them in the end.
