I'll pay whatever the pony is worth.   I don't really have a limit.  I won't OVERpay for a pony unless it's a set-completer or one that means a lot to me.

After a lot of thought, I think my upper limit is about 200. But that would have to be one very special pony! I can certainly see myself spending 20-50 on a pony without much guilt (if that's what it's worth, and if all my bills are paid...).

Yep, this post pretty much says everything I was going to say!

Highest I'll go is a hundred, and that's only for a pony I MUST have! And I haven't come across one I want that much yet! XD

The most I am really willing to go is a little over $100. More than that, I feel like I am wasting money even though many pony people will say I am crazy to say such a thing. :P

I have trouble spending $25 on a single pony, and my max is $50 (with a little wiggle room, of course). But there are very, very few ponies I'd spend more than $30 on.

Well, it depends on what kind and how desperately I want it. For example, my Skywishes cost me a whopping US$52 (beating out my Scootaloo by almost three US dollars). And I know if I do get the chance to snap up my grail, it will cost me a few thousand.

^This! Though I have a hard time -not- spending my pony money, so the high dollar ponies aren't always something I can buy. As it is, the most I've spent was for my minty Ladybird with half of her egg and the cardboard stand (pricy, but so worth it :lovey: ).

Well I never thought I'd be spending in the $100s & I don't that often although my absolute max would probably be around $500. She would have to be a grail & worth it though. I don't think I could justify a grand at this stage, half is enough :)

Well as I have no money no ponies but online I my upper limit is £30 and I tend to factor shipping in too. Carboots/Charity shops I wouldn't spend over £5 unless it was say really mint, rare, playset, etc. I remember getting screwed over in my early days when I payed £2.50 for what turned out to be really baity G1 ponies

Thinking more aobut it...

I'm missing a little over 150 (153) G1 US collection, and missing almost all the MO ones, by luck, I have some of the expensive ones that I found for a good price (way less than $20) (MO Mommy, Pretty Mane Scribble, Birthday Baby Pony Baby Gametime).  But I'm trying to get myself to get enough money to have at least the US complete collection =D  (even if that means starving at my university while being all day prisioner on it *j/k*)

I will pay $100 quite happily for a pony but I have paid $150 for a few. It hurts the bank but the money was happily spent and I am glad to have the ponies

As a broke (soon to be) student, I would like to say I stay under 15$ for ponies, but in all honesty, I rarely buy ponies other than thrifted ones, which I pay something like 39cents or so for each.
My entire collection of ponies, not including Cheerlie's School House has cost me about 7$ [size=78%]or so.[/size]

[size=78%]God I'm cheap...... I just can't justify spending that much on a pony when I could buy a new computer part, or a pretty dress or groceries![/size]

For common ponies, I try and stay under $5 per pony. I will pay more for the rare ones, or ones on my grail list.  ^.^
