---- facebook store options?

Hi,
We run an e-commerce company & also have a facebook page. Now, we want to explore the idea of giving customers to buy our products from our facebook fan page. Ideally, we would have liked to use a facebook app that talks to our webstore standard shopping cart - but currently, our webstore uses custom code - so that's not really an option.
Here's what I'll like the customer experience to be like:
Fans / followers / others should be able to see the products as they would appear on a typical fan page - ie as pictures
Along with the picture / comments / likes, customers see an option to buy the item. The payment gateway can be directly integrated onto facebook
Ofcourse, there'll be some changes required from our (seller side)
company registration details, bank details, product details
order management dashboard
but the user experience should be as seamless to a seamless fan page. Most of the facebook apps I have glanced through (Payvment, Ecwid, Bigcommerce, Vendorshop, fanpage-toolkit) either make a tab (which suffers from low visible)or integrate with an existing standard webstore shopping cart - neither of which meet our current need.
Any suggestions on the right facebook app / way to go about this?
Thanks
