Provide the ability for vendors to set the actual weight in the listing so that it can be an option of sorting/filtering. It could also be an option for conversion (g/$, oz/bitcoin) and sorting.
In some sections it would probably be difficult to implement a standard means of measurement, but in the weed section you could easily add options for grams/oz and therefore be able to do cost effective comparison.

I think this would just make things a bit too complicated. Don't forget that you have to factor in quality and vendor reputation as well. I'd rather buy 50g of the good type from one seller and pay a bit more, than buy 50g of the bad type from another seller just because it's a bit cheaper.

I don't think being able to filter against those things would be terribly hard either.
I think options to filter against weight and price would be a great thing.

The more filter and sorting options, the better, in my opinion. Buyers should be able to order things how they want, so they can make purchasing decisions more readily. Sorting by country, price, weight etc would all be useful options.

Seller rep and rank first, everythiing else comes after!
-
Well there's already a "newest" option, which is less useful than any of the other options I mentioned.

It's actually be easier for you because you could compare all vendors selling say a 1/2 OZ and see the full range of prices available. It's not going to eliminate your need to vet your seller and or their product, but it will give you a means to see the range of prices for a given quantity.
