I'm not joking and it's not the 1st time it happened. I'm new at Eve so it's likely I'm doing something wrong but please enlighten me.

I want to sell Tritanium. I select "Sell this item", I get prompted to set the price, I get money deducted as tax and...that's it. My stuff doesn't appear anywhere. Not in the items list when searching for that specific item, nor in My Selling Orders or what's called tab. It's not in my inventory either.

You need to send in a petition. This has happened to me before and within a couple of hours the stuff was returned to items in the station I was parked in.

Sounds like OP did a sell order of "Immediate" duration.

Check your wallet transactions tab.

I set mine to default to 2 weeks.

You are not selling to a buy order, or you partially filled the buy order and the remaining is now setup as a sell order the the price you sold to.

Or you listed your trit to sell to a buy order that was not in your station. What this means is you tried to sell your trit to a buy order in a different station, and your trit is now setup to sell at the price you set in your current station.

Click on your walled and click on the orders tab, you should see your item listed there at whatever price you tried to sell it to.

You need to be in the same station as the buy order if you want to sell to a person.
