If the product isn't changing much except for the total ordered, I would go the route of creating one of PayPals encrypted buttons or what ever they call them so visitors are less likely to change the price, shipping values of the item. Since Paypal products are sent in form variables someone could maybe hyjack your form values and then send their own values to Paypal. If you hold your paypal processing script in it's own processing page that peeps can't view form values then it doesn't matter what you do. There is one option in PayPal product setup which I def. recommend. something like fast checkout or something where the customer does not need a paypal account to process the order. I would always recommend the customer has the ability to change quantity ordering at paypal if you can ge the shipping correct in this manner.
