How about the most likely scenario - Getting off'ed by LV or a DE 
during Wizard War 1. If this happened prior to J&L going into hiding, 
they would have inherited and been able to stash it at Gringotts. 
Note that Lilly as a Muggle-Born would not be the source of the 
Wizard Money (unless her parents were Squibs and thus still part of 
the Wizard World).

He never went to to get the money for the Broom. He placed the order 
via OWL Mail under Harry's Name and paid for it via a Gringotts funds 
transfer (ie: He "wired" the money).
