I have heard that Halford does buy raw fur, but I can't confirm that. There used to be a another place in Edmonton that did buy raw fur. They called themselves ****kers but I wouldn't recommend them.
There also are also a number of travelling buyers and you might find a local buyer in one of the smaller towns, but I can't help you with either of those.
The Alberta Trappers Association should be able to tell you how to contact a travelling buyer or a local buyer.
I ship all my fur to NAFA. After all, that is where all the local buyers sell the fur they buy. I have never had any reason to be unhappy with them.
BTW, the reason I asked what you meant is because dressed is not a term I hear associated with fur. I learned to refer to untanned hides as raw fur and tanned hides as tanned hides.
The only time I've heard dressed used in relation to fur, it was by European writers and referred to tanned hides.
