Every agent and potential buyer will ALWAYS say "the price is to high" I always say that when I look at a house even if I think it is priced fairly. Everyone wants a bargain. So check the comps, look at everything on the market near you, watch what sells and at what price, know and understand "your market" and price your home accordingly.

Redfin.com is a decent tool to track this if they support your area. You can look at what has sold, what is on the market, which homes have open houses, asking vs selling price, etc. Throw out foreclosures as they will skew the numbers. Every home has a price that it will sell at, but you should not give it away either. You may not get what you expect for it, but make sure you do get a fair price.
