Note
계란 always means a chicken egg, and an egg in general is 알. So you can buy Duo eggs.

Why can't we use 달걀 for egg here? Is there a contextual difference between 달걀 and 계란?

You don't pluralize inanimate objects in Korean, so the 들 in "계란들을" is wrong

Could someone explain me the 마 part? I mean I know the ㅂ/습니다 grammar but for some reason I don't get that

With Korean, negative command is expressed through -지 마, such that where a command such as "Buy eggs." (계란을 사세요) can be negated by adding -지 to the end of the infinitive form of the verb and having the final verb be 마, such that "Don't buy eggs." is 계란을 사지 마세요.
