It is a goal of mine to visit every country (currently at #140), so 55 or so remaining, half of which require visas. So visa costs won't deter me from visiting anywhere. My most expensive visa so far was for Iran, 150 Euro on my UK passport. That's ok though as I've saved more than that by using my UK passport to travel to Brazil, Chile and Argentina. Next most expensive was Cote d'Ivoire at $150. Though with all the invite+visa service fees I think Russia wins for all-in visa costs.
These are visa fees I remember paying:
Myanmar - $20
Suriname - $45
Kyrgyzstan - $100
Uzbekistan - $140
Kazakhstan - $40
Tajikistan - $25
Gabon - $100
Cameroon - $100
Nigeria - $112+$85 expedite fee
Benin - $20 in Accra
Togo - $30 at border
Burkina Faso - $20 at border (it's since gone up)
Mali - $140
Iran - 150EUR
Cote d'Ivoire - $150

Cote d'Ivoire - $150
Yemen - $50 on arrival (prearranged)
Djibouti - $60
Uganda - $50 on arrival
Burundi - $40 (3-day transit visa at border)
Eritrea - $50
Saudi Arabia - $16 (double entry transit visa)
So now I have 18-countries left to visit that require visas. I think the most expensive now is going to be Congo (Brazzaville) at $200!!
