Training,confirmation and temperment mean everything. Location sets market value and where I am in upstate NY that pony unless it has a lot of training previously and is a bomb proof childs mount that pony is worth very little presently. If you can hop on and ride without a big fight and the pony seems to remember the basics it has some value. Without any history its a gamble unless you can get that horse for a lot less.
