Using the optional Downtime activity in Xanathar's guide for purchasing magic items has made them worthy of my consideration (as a GM). Finally the party has something to spend their money on (the equipment list is pretty sparse) but it is still limited (no "let's all buy +2 longswords this week and 10 bags of holding LOL").
However, I much prefer the rules for magic items in Adventures in Middle Earth. Things like magic weapons getting stronger over time ("unlocking" more features as the owner levels up) and items tied to specific skills, granting the owner the choice of spending HD to do epic things.
