Shimano Ultegra 6500 groupset
Hey all, I'm looking to sell this groupset soon and I'd like to hear from others on what its value is.
It has 2 cassettes and 2 bottom brackets.

Probably looking at about $300 as a group. Condition wil hold down the prices on some of the stuff. Sell the extra cassette and BB separately. You'll be giving them away otherwise.
If I were selling I would sell everything individually.

Yep, agreed. When I look at a groupset, I check the condition of the hoods and faceplates (hoods on these look OK but the faceplates need replacement) and levers (ditto)
The backs of the brake calipers (spray of Windex or Simple Green and a few minutes with a toothbrush or rag will clean 'em up), crank arms and rings (can't tell conditionof the rings from the angle of the photo but the arms look remarkably nice), rash on RD (very common) and cleanliness of FD.
As a group, I'd say this one has been worked hard. Note replacement brake pads (it takes a LOT of miles to wear through a set of pads), condition of faceplates and rash on RD. So, sell separate.

Thanks for the advice, guys. I'll be giving these parts a nice scrubbing and sell them individually.
Should I buy new nameplates(at a ridiculous $30) for the shifters or just sell them as is?

As-is. Would probably only boost the price $20.
