I happened to be in Best Buy this afternoon and decided to check out the 5c, just to see what it looked and felt like. During the conversation I was told I could get $300 on a trade in for my 16GB iPhone 5. They also happened to have a 32GB gold 5s. I have a few phones on my plan (through my family and business) so I have an upgrade available every few months. Needless to say, I walked out with a 5s with twice the capacity for $35 (the Verizon activation fee). I am quite happy. I was surprised because I thought there was a shortage of the "champagne" model.

Congrats!

I was told that Best Buy gets a variety of sizes/carriers/colors... and it's really random.

You lucked out. :)

Great find. I think the 32GB will do you well.
