Every magic item (even the more "common" ones) is valuable and treasured, even if it might not be used often
A +1 sword can split the hide of the toughest monsters and beasts, and is the heirloom of a powerful marquis
Three healing potions on the raised dias of the church, awaiting the arrival of the prophesied heroes, who will need them to vanquish the vampire
Or the duke with more money than sense, who has a small trove of magical items like the Stone of Gravity sensing or the Ring of Purple death detection. The twist is that in some forgotten corner of his room is a dagger that glows in the presence of demons (including the ones disguised as humans to overthrow the kingdom)
