Magic rope - an animated rope that can be commanded to levitate and tie knots. When placed in any container, pouch or pocket, it immediately gets tangled up and take 1d6 minutes per 5ft of rope to untangle. Other objects in the container also become tangled with the rope, and take 1d6 minutes to remove individually, entangled objects are released immediately when the entire rope is untangled.
Magic rope is unable to be cut by any non-magical item.
it immediately gets tangled up and take 1d6 minutes per 5ft of rope to untangle
Should be a Dexterity check per 5ft per 1d6 minutes to make it even more diabolical.

I have two I will be using in my next campaign:
Ring of attunement: Provides 1 extra attunement slot. (Requires attunement)
Event Staff: This staff allows the wielder to gain unquestioned entry into any “employees only” areas or zones otherwise off-limits to the public. Anyone (including actual staff or other officials) who sees the wielder in one of these areas will assume they are a known employee or other official who is granted special access to the area. Unfortunately, they will all also view the wielder as the least competent and least trustworthy employee or official with the organization. Any actions taken in the area are likely to be closely watched and highly scrutinized by any observer who would know better.
ETA: One from the current campaign in which I am a player character. Our DM thought of this one:
Bullet of Healing:
This magical bullet can be loaded into any firearm. Whomever is shot by this bullet first receives 1d6 piercing damage followed by 1d10 healing. If the initial damage causes recipient’s HP to fall below 0 before the bullet’s healing effects begin, they will fall unconscious and will not gain any healing effect from the bullet. Instead, one death save is automatically passed.
I played a campaign where we had a dagger of healing. It worked great against undead (as intended by the DM) and also to torture information out of people (not intended by DM).

Why secret? It’s a dull sword.
I like letting my players figure it out. If I don’t pack the game with contrived stats they’ll spend all night investigating an unlocked door.

Wand of magic missile.
Occasionally shoots cum.

I was hoping it stays up in the air so you have to tie it like a ballon.
That makes it too easy: just attach a ropeladder to the broom. That doesn’t work if the broom stops levitating when you get off.

Amulet of speak with the dead - cursed. Once attuned the user can speak with the dead, but can only interpret chat with the living as wailing, any attempts to speak with the living will sound like wailing to the other entity. Removing the item does not break the curse.

OK so what’s the downside?

This sword is enchanted with fire magic!
…The handle is made of super flammable material, though, and a bunch of people got third degree burns trying to weild it. There was a massive recall.
You know what “recall” means, though? Collector’s item! These are rare af.

Praytell the price on yon banana blade to your left, fair merchant? I find it somewhat a-peeling

Ask the beholder you were trying to hit with a magic missile.

A magical sword that extends, but the longer you have it, the longer the incantation you have to say to get it to extend… Maybe show it some pictures of people cleaved in two, or try stabbing somewhere else to get it going.

Scroll of Gorilla Warfare. When used summons 15 gorillas. These gorillas are wild and do not obey orders given by the caster.

Luckily, most of these arguments assume living clowns. Something that can be easily remedied, it just shifts the entire problem space to doing it fast enough!
On that note, what’s their EXP value?
If my PCs responded to the clowns this way, I would absolutely make the clowns demons and the “bag of holding” a portal to a circus themed layer of the Abyss. And that’s the campaign now.
It turns out the ruler of this layer of the abyss appreciates your lust for violence and mass murder. That’s probably not actually… good? For you?

I don’t know about you, but the prospect of becoming a warlock themed around blood, flesh and clownery sounds pretty sweet to me!
I’d definitely play that campaign.

Dagger of purification
Can only be used to heal wounds inflicted more than 1 hour ago. Each recent use on the target reduces the effectiveness of the dagger’s healing powers.

Well that’s what you have a coin purse or primary bag of holding for. Assuming the hand retrieving items is not folded (which I would assume is safe to assume based on how bags of holding generally work), it could be used for forging, folding washing, making something really long by reinserting it repeatedly, or sabotaging by folding things that should not be foldable.
Folded in a random axis.

Ring of (Logical) Invisibility v2. Makes you invisible except for your eye balls so that they can absorb light. You may now see but you appear as a pair of floating eyeballs.
V3, your eyeballs are only visible when your eyes are open.

That indeed would make it significantly less useful.

I would definitely let you play that in my campaign. Also reminds me of that bad guy from One Piece.

Scroll of Gorilla Warfare. When used summons 15 gorillas. These gorillas are wild and do not obey orders given by the caster.
The gorillas disappear after 1d12 rounds. This effect ‘echoes’ 1d6 times, effectively recasting the spell after 1d6 rounds.
