Re another Horcrux possibility...
Have we ever been told WHERE/WHAT HAPPENED to
Voldemort's WAND?
I was reviewing the Tom Riddle clues when it dawned
on me. WHY did Riddle have to steal Harry's
wand in COS? What happened to HIS wand? Is it
possible he became so adept at Mind Spells that
V felt he could hide 1/7 of himself in his wand?
What would Voldemort's wand look like? We know
that the shop of Olivander the wand maker has
been closed down and the old man taken away.
WHY? And recall another tie in. Both V's and
Harry's wands contain a feather from a PHONEIX!
Is it possible the phoenix which contributed
the feathers was Dumbledore's FAWKES? If so,
HOW did Dumbledore acquire Fawkes' allegiance?
and when?
Sorry that posted twice.

Since Riddle was just a "memory" rather than the actual Riddle, he didn't have a working wand (or that's what I think)-remember he had to "posses" ginny to actualize.

In Goblet of Fire Dumbledore told Harry the Phoenix feather in both Hp's and V's wand is from Fawkes.

I think Dumbledore's always had Fawkes. I assume he sold a few feathers on ebay, which were purchased by Olivander back when he was a starving young transfiguration professor (when in doubt make something up.)
Voldy has his wand. Remember in GOF his wand and Harry's perform some sort of "reverse spell" thing where all the people he killed were revealed in a ghostlike form including James, who helps guide Harry back to the portkey so he can return to Hogwarts.
