Well, a not so silly response:

If you aren't expecting hundreds of sales, you can use
RokQuickCart[basically a simple implementation of the SimpleCart javascript
library] - it uses a content plugin and K2 will run content plugins.

So you just change your display template to embed the mambot code, and then
when the plugin runs it converts it to an add to cart button.

The downside of SimpleCart is it is easy to override the pricing options[ie,
since the price is in the javascript, one can change $50 to $5 and then
checkout] - so it has to be a low volume set of purchases where the seller
is going to check the prices paid in paypal and reject/refund anyone who
tries to get funny.
