I've never even thought of it that way. I consider restoring ponies part of the hobby, and hobbies tend to cost money. Passing time rehairing a pony or seeing the progress on sun fading even if it takes time (time is money too), is more of a "i'm having a good time" value than "I'm going to sell this pony" value.
If I did restore ponies, the cost vs the value wouldn't be a factor to me. Not even a passing thought. I only work on things I strongly want to work on. I pretty much only do "passion projects", so I would probably start a restoration with the expectation that the materials would be more than the value of the pony itself. So I don't really have a limit or a line I draw.
