I don't think they place that much importance on their wands.  Seeing as 
Bill gave his old one to Ron and bought a new one.  They are tools.. not 
sacred implements.  When your hammer wears out, you buy a new one.  Some 
might have more then one hammer, different ones for different things.. 
Being as some wands are favored for charms and others for 
transfiguration, etc. Someone talented in multiple skills, who has to do 
certain types of difficult spells, might use different wands.

Say that Bob works at Zonkos, putting charms on joke items all day. 
Maybe, he has a separate wand he uses for work that makes those kinds of 
charms easier.  Like a 26 oz framing hammer works better when nailing 
house frames then a sledge hammer or a balpeen hammer?
