Ask your Question I have a form where users can select some quantity or product. For example: 1 sock or 10 socks.

Sure I can sock.quantity * sock.price = payapl.amount But within paypal it then shows quantity 1 at a rate of total. The merchant doesn't know if this is 1 expensive sock, or 10 cheap socks.

is there not a way to tell paypal it's 10 pairs of socks and paypal already knows the unit price of each pair?
