I think the most I've spent on a single pony without playset is $25-30 which is what I spent on my 3 MIB art/fair ponies.  I don't think that I could bring myself to spend more than $20 on a single loose pony.  I'm contemplating trying to do some art trades for ponies to avoid the money issue.

Lol.  I've also offered body parts and/or children for ponies before.  But seriously, if I have the money then there is no limit.

Most I've spent on a single pony is about $17 on my FS Twilight Sparkle. As for the most I will pay, it depends on the pony. For G4 stuff I'll pay whatever I know is the lowest in store price, and I'm a coupon fanatic so I get deals wherever I can. Euro exclusives are an exception, about $20 each is my max for those.

Beyond that, what gen it's from, it's condition, whether it's still MIB, and how much I like the pony will factor in to how much I'm willing to pay for it. My budget will determine when I buy something. So if I want a pony, I'll put a price cap on it and if I can't afford it now I'll just have to save up until I can.

It really depends on the pony ... and how rare it is etc. I try to keep them below 50 each unless its a nirvana.

I have caps for specific ponies/groups, based on their market value versus my level of "want".
For example:

"Common" G1 $15
Wingers $20
Mountain Boys $50
Nightlight $150


Edit, I've recently purchased Nightlight, and apparently $150 was not my top price for her.
Funny how things change when you are close to having your grail, eh?

I might be alone here, but there is no maximum for what I am willing to pay for something I want, haha!  That being said, I very much take into consideration how rare the pony is, and how rare the pony is in the condition it's in.

As an example, I might have an idea for what I would be willing to pay for a TE Bright Eyes.  But if one came up with absolutely no caner or age marks, I would not think twice about spending $100 for her...
