Key's Giveaway #1

Now Closed. Thanks for playing! And thanks to Feisty Parrot and THP for the giveaway goodies!
 
So fortunately I was able to get some free bottles of sauce recently from The Hot Pepper, as others also have.
 
However, I have a standing no alcohol policy, which sort of made it difficult for me to consume at least one of the bottles.
 
This has happened on a previous occasion as far as giveaways go, so I decided to contact the sauce maker Feisty Parrot and see what we could work out-rather than simply toss the bottle. They were willing to help me out again, and asked that I give away the bottle to another individual.
 
So here is the thread where I will do just that.
 
The prize you are playing for is an unopened bottle of Feisty Parrot's "Savage Beast" Ghost and Scorpion Pepper Hot Sauce. US only please, for now.

Here's how I'll decide the winner:
 
I play free poker sometimes, and I have amassed a certain value of chips. I am rounding to the nearest 500 or 1000. Your job is to guess, using increments of 500, within 500 chips or exactly, the amount of chips I currently have.  In the event two people guess the same interval on opposite sides, the one who guessed first wins. If two on opposite side of 500 guess, and a third person guess exactly, the third person wins. I will sort through entries in sequence as I have time. It may be possible that a correct guess will not be noted until after other guesses have been posted. I will defer to the correct first guess, regardless of when it was posted. I will cross off on post 1 incorrect guesses in groups when I am able. 
 
If no one has guessed correctly after some time, I will give a hint. *** I will provide an upper limit. The upper boundary is 40,000. 40,000 is incorrect. A guess higher than 40000 is incorrect.*** All guesses must be above zero (I do not have negative chips.)  ***The value will not be a decimal. It will be a positive whole number.***
 
I will ask that the winner P.M. me a shipping address. 
 
Example:   Key has 1,000,000 chips. Key actually has 1,000,500 chips. You win.

Incorrect Number Guess List:
 
40000
less than zero.
0 < n < 40000  
 
24500
33000
36000
2500
11500
 
Sorry you are all incorrect.
 
I will note with this post that I amended the contest parameters a bit to make it more streamlined.
 
As a result, guesses above 40,000 or below 0 are invalid.
 
Please take this into account when guessing. I will list the valid guess on the incorrect list, since you were also incorrect.
 
Please also guess in increments of 500.  to make this easier, a guess of 600 is not valid.
 
For those of you who guessed below 40000, but did not guess in increments of 500, I will round your incorrect guesses to the nearest 500 and add them to the incorrect list. 210500 is not a valid guess because it is outside the 40000 upper limit.  (I apologize if you were all guessing prior to seeing that I modified the contest parameters. You may guess again.)
 
Example: 1,000,600 is not a valid guess. 1,000,500 would be a valid guess if it were below 40,000.  
 
You may guess again. Thanks.  See page 1 for the incorrect number list.
 
> Continue.
 
you are all incorrect. please guess again.
 
Note. Luckydog, you are outside of the upper limit. the upper boundary is 40000.
 
Note. Romy6,  I did not specify originally in the rules, so I will specify now: the number will not be a decimal, but a positive whole number. As such, I rounded your guess to 2,500, which is incorrect.
 
> you may continue.
