I just raved about my love for the iPhone 5 series.

What are the best buying options for the 5s? Does Apple run holiday sales for iPhones like they do for Macs? The current price of an Unlocked 16GB 5s is $550, just $100 below the iPhone 6. Will it be possible to pick one up for $450 during the holidays? How long will the 5s be available through retailers?

Also, what are your thoughts on buying a used iPhone on ebay or Swappa? Good/Bad experience? I'm kind of anal about staying clean. My iPhone 5 doesn't even look like it's been used at all. I turn off my phone for 2 hours every day to prolong the life of the phone. Basically, I take good care of all my things. I'm afraid that the person on the other end isn't like me. Anyone here as anal as I am but too cheap to pay full price? If you have good resources or experiences, please let me know. I'm looking for a 5s in Silver.
