Maybe, but the implied behavior from what the buyer sees is that they are verifying a specific amount on Paypal's (trusted vendor) site, not on marginally trusted random internet vendor.
The difference is that if I want to order some two dollar bike parts, I'm happy to risk that I won't receive them, but I'm not in the habit of giving my credit card to every random site on the internet.
