In the 3rd or 4th book (sorry cant remember which), Dumbledore says it is interesting that he had his wand...
Does anyone know how he got it back??

To the answerer above he can't have made it because it contains the other phoenix feather that was taken from Fawkes. It is the "brother" wand to Harry's wand, and even expelled past spells that he had done before his disappearance.
It doesn't really address how he got his same wand back. In book 1 Hagrid said that when he rescued Harry as a baby the house was in ruins after V killed the Potters. First in book 2 and then mentioned again in the following books It became clear that V had distributed many of his more important belongings among his Death Eaters for safe keeping. I've always assumed that Death Eaters went to the Potter's house after his disappearance, found his wand, and kept it in safe keeping since noone was certain if he was dead or other. In book 4 Barty Crouch Jr. had escaped Azkaban and his father's house, could've known where the wand had been hidden, and returned it to V once Wormtail helped him escape his father.
Another idea (but not one I put much stock in) is that after he lost his body from the spell not working on Harry, he could've immediatley found a snake's body to inhabit (which we know he did at least later in the series), got his wand hisself, hid it, and retrieved it when he got closer to having a body he could use a wand with.

In the fourth book, "Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire", when Wormtail performed the spell to bring back Voldemort, he handed him his wand as he emerged from the caldron that he was "reborn" in. So I'm guessing that not only did Hagrid and Sirius visit the home the Potters were killed in, but also Wormtail to collect his master's wand. It's the only thing that makes sense since wizards do not remake their own wands, if they did then what would they need Olivander's for?

my guess would be that wormtail who told voldemort where lily and james are hiding must have gone later to see whether his master voldemort had really died and must have picked up voldemort's wand and hid it somewhere.and when dumbledore commented on voldemort holding a wand as interesting he wasn't talking about him having a wand but about him HOLDING the wand which meant that he had a body of some kind and was therefore getting more powerful..

Wormtail hands it to him in the Goblet of Fire.

I am pretty sure it was entirely by accident. A friend called him and told him that it was listed on EBay so he bought it online.
