If you have questions about how magic items work in your campaign, ask your dungeon master.

Items that require attunement function as ordinary items of their kind until properly attuned to.
Attunement is yet another aspect of magic items that is often ruled differently by dungeon masters.

This label can tell you a lot about the availability of magic items in your campaign.
That being said, we would recommend clarifiying further as these are broad terms.

you’ve got the option to find tables that measure these activities in Xanathar’s Guide to Everything.
That being said, when is this not the case?
