Should I put my 1954 proof set in the Registry?

I have a high grade 1954 proof set that I want to sell soon, probably on eBay. After doing a little research, I learned that the PCGS guide price for this set is over $1100.
Surprised by this price, I took a look at the Registry to find out if this set was more special than I had realized. Out of over 80 1954 proof sets listed, my set would be in the top 20. Upgrading the weakest coin would put it in the top 10 or 12.
I know next to nothing about the Registry, and don't even have an account. Would registering this proof set enhance its saleability? If so, would I be smarter to upgrade a couple coins and get it closer to the top set before selling?
I realize that assembling a proof set is a tiny accomplishment compared to a series set; so, please excuse my ignorance regarding the Registry.
