I do agree that it can't just be a one-to-one wizard-wand compatibility
ratio, though.  If there was only one wand that would choose a wizard and
something happened to that one wand, things might not be quite the same for
a wizard from then on.  It, at best, would be like a professional
relationship, not like a friend or something like what Harry feels for his
wand.

I agree. Although certain wands may be "perfect" for a certain witch or wizard, it cannot be an exclusive one on one compatibility.  Otherwise, how can a shop like Olliander's exist?  The wands are made without knowing the wizard that's going to buy them and obviously are often made well before they were born.  You cannot make wands HOPING that a wizard matching it is born some day and HOPING he happens to show up in your shop to buy it.  No, it cannot be nearly that exclusive a relationship.  Concerning Ron using Charlie's old wand.  Since they were in the same family, there is a good chance though that the compatibility level was actually very high even if it wasn't Ron's "perfect" wand. I would imagine that some wands would be very incompatible with some wizards though.  That doesn't mean that even they still couldn't be used in a pinch. Huggs Becky
