I did the credit test and discovered that the 15th fret is indeed higher than the surrounding frets. So, should i have the frets leveled professional before selling it, or just discount the price (and obviously explain the defect to potential buyers)? Its a Takamine LTD 2004 if that makes any difference.

I wouldn't consider a fret leveling. Could well be the 15th fret has just popped up a bit and if so a very easy fix.
