GQF questions/help

[benson226]

I was looking at buying a GQF 1527 from someone, but I am still a little confused as to how this incubator is different from the 1502. I am hoping hat some of you out there have experience with this type of incubator, and can provide me with some insight.
The seller told me it comes with 2 double sided turning racks-I cant find them on GQFs website, and I am wondering if these racks can hold chicken, quail eggs, etc?
Here is what the seller emailed me, if any of you can help me out, I would appreciate it.


"This is Model 1527. It is automantic with digetal controlls. It has two double sided turning racks. Chicken eggs can be turned also. You can add a third tray if desired. It has a water tray and sponges that comes with it for the inside. There is no bucket that comes with it. It has diget automantic controlls that keeps it set at desired temp at all times. The racks are two racks that come with it with double sides making it a four turning tray rack in too racks. The racks will hold alot of chicken eggs. There is no hatching tray in the bottom. but one can be ordered. Now I will narrow it down for you. Incubator..water tray..sponges..two double turning racks comes with this incubator. I hope this helps. "

Can any of you guys/gals help me interpret this?I am mostly interested in hatching peacock, chicken, and quail. I need to know what I can do with this incubator, and what, if anything, I will have to buy in addition to what is included.
Also, any idea of the value of this setup, if its digital,and 2 years old?

Thanks everyone!

I guess I should add that the auction ends in 20 hours!

rebelcowboysnb-
Thanks for that link- Still not sure what this was referring too: "The racks are two racks that come with it with double sides making it a four turning tray rack in too racks" But, it appears this is not what I was looking for, I thought I could buy 1502 racks and slide them right in there, but it appears that the whole turning mechanism is different?

Yea, those flip completely over. They would work with other eggs you just place them long ways an use foam to fill in the extra space. May be a bit of a hassle, dont know.

You put eggs in one side an clamp down the egg holder. Then the trays turn over an you put eggs in the other side. So each rack holds twice as much.
