Years ago i had a Photobox Pro account, which allowed you to upload photos of for example an event, to a gallery, people could view the images and purchase printed images on a variety of media.

Photobox stopped doing this, I'm now looking for recommendations for something similar. A quick google brings up Smugmug and Zenfolio amongst others. But i'm thoroughly out of touch with what's available
so recommendations would be gratefully received.

Check out The Printspace, they do something similar called The Hub, and their printing is superb.

Just checked this out on their website and it looks a good service but is it still operating? All the pages off the main page are error 404 pages.

Should be, the labs are definitely still running etc. - I'd drop them a line as it sounds like something is up.
 
If I did my site today I would go wordpress and find a very good shopping cart app. Your expenses would be only hosting fees + domain renewals.

You can then simply order those prints for your customer from any decent lab like Loxley. They could ship directly to the customer if so specified.

For a reference my site is with Zenfolio. It takes the hassle away but they are not without serious issues. Note the distinct lack of HTTPS for example and there are FEES to pay left and right. Most competitors will fare similarly.
