Now Meri: 

Two minor points: 
1: Was it Ollivander who said that no town wands would work against 
each other? I thought that was Dumbledore in GoF right after the 
third task, explaining to Harry why his and LV's wands went all 
wacky. Then again I am at school and don't have my books with me, so 
you could be right. 
2: I am under the impression that since it is the wand who chooses 
the wizard, Ollivander has no choice about which wand to sell to a 
customer who has allready been chosen by a wand. What would he do 
with a wand that he couldn't sell to any one else (I doubt that 
Harry's wand would have chosen any other wizard)? Besides, with 
Hagrid in the room while Harry was trying out wands it would have 
raised too many questions, from Hagrid at the least, if Ollivander 
had snatched the obviously functioning wand from Harry's hand and 
said, "Well, let's just try another, shall we?" Even Harry, I think, 
knew that that wand was the one and would have questioned Ollivander 
if he had taken it away. 
Also, I am personally undedcided, like most list members it seeems, 
as to which side Ollivander owes his loyalties to. I like the 
speculation that he is a DE and that he knows LV's "secret identity" 
is Tom Riddle. If this is true then I am guessing that he may be very 
high up in LV's circle, possibly one of his highest placed spies. If 
he is that high up it is possible that he knows about the existence 
of the prophecy. If he does know about it and he sees the boy who 
everyone assumes is the fulfillment of that prophecy walk into his 
shop, why shouldn't he give him LV's twin wand? Even if LV can't use 
it against Harry, Harry also cannot use it against LV, Just a few 
wand thoughts.
