I think the site could be greatly improved with more specific search parameters. This would make it easier for the buyer to narrow the focus within categories, so that he/she only has to scroll through pertinent listings to locate the product. Some of categories have hundreds of listings, such as marijuana, and many of these are redundant (i.e. same product only different weight). It's time consuming to load 18 separate pages of MJ in a plethora of sizes (which is necessary if you want to compare prices), when the buyer is only interested in purchasing an ounce, etc.
Therefore, I suggest modifying the site so that one can narrow the search by weight. An alternative would be to require vendors to only make one listing per product or strain, where the buyer could select the weight from a drop down menu. Although, I think the former is the best way forward.
Just saw another thread and regarding search based on price; this is a good idea too. This would also make shopping much more efficient.
Not only would this streamline shopping and buying, it would also cut down on the site traffic since people would not have to load as many pages to find what they are looking for.
