Yard Sale Treasure Map Alternative: Spotted vs Yard Sale Treasure Map

Updated October 20, 2026

The short answer

Yard Sale Treasure Map is built for planning a Saturday route: sales on a map, directions and Street View. Spotted is built for deciding which sales are worth the drive: it shows what is in each sale’s photos and what similar items go for on eBay.

Details about Yard Sale Treasure Map here come from its website and App Store listing as of October 20, 2026. As of October 20, 2026, Spotted listed about 6,900 estate, garage and yard sales starting within three weeks, from multiple sources; about 3,300 had items identified from their photos, and close to 4,000 of those items had eBay comparisons.

Where Yard Sale Treasure Map is the better fit

Routing and local yard sales. If you already know you are going out and want the most efficient loop through a dozen neighborhood sales, its route planner does that and Spotted does not. Sales hosts can also post directly to it.

Where Spotted is the better fit

Picking sales by what they have. Spotted reads the listing photos and names what is in them, so you can see that one estate sale has a teak credenza and another has mostly linens before you leave. For resellers, the eBay value next to each item shows which sales are worth the gas.
