After seeing this, I had a thought what if FB also brings 'buy' buttons on similar lines where pages can post items with a price tag and 'buy' button? It will surely be a nice revenue stream. Both FB and Twitter have an incredible reach. If Twitter can bring this experience about in a non-intrusive way, then it's a win-win for everyone.

They have.

They are definitely trying to get the experience right by going with limited partners and exposing the feature to small user base. I imagine, if they had opened the floodgates immediately, then we would have seen the 'buy' button left right and centre on the feed.
