theres two types of win95, an upgrade , that does require win31, and a full install, that doesnt require either win31 or even dos- just your bootdisk (if your win95 is on CD).
As for how much to pay , is a fiver too much? You shouldnt have any trouble finding ridiculously cheap copies in thrift stores these days, and even computer shops likely would have it for maybe ten bucks- 95 b might be a couple bucks more, but all in all- i bought a box with w95 upgrade and WfWgroups upgrade, and dos 6.2 (26 or so floppies altogether) for 10 bucks for the lot from my local computer shop, last year- thats canadian money too, which is worth a lot less than your US currency...
got 95b on CD for 5 bucks,as well, and if you can find the cds your better off as floppies do die all too easily...
im not a fan of E-Bay, and i personally wouldn't use it except as a last resort, but i suppose you could find it cheap there too..
