Marozi:

Yes, and in POA, Sirius uses both Ron and Snape's
wands.  Peter uses Lupin's wand.  In COS, Gilderoy
fully expected to be able to use Ron's wand (it
backfired because it was broken).  All of these were
taken against the owner's will.  

I just don't believe in an exclusive "relationship"
between wizard and wand.  I think it's more in the
nature of an affinity.  A particular wand may
"resonate" more than others with a particular wizard,
and that advantage may be especially important when
you're a student first learning.  Of course, this
doesn't explain the lack of spare wands.  But I don't
think an exclusive bond is the explanation.
