Is Ron allowed to use cellotape to fix his wand?
My point is, if Wizards don't use regular pens, they shouldn't have access to cellotape either, do they? So, was Ron allowed to use it to fix his wand?

I thik the level of "muggleness" is similar, wizards can fix things without cello tape, they use parchment instead of paper.

It wasn't sellotape, it was spellotape, the wizard alternative.

Also, as Hermione demonstrated, normal wands can't repair other broken wands.

@AlejandroGonzálezLópez Do quills have less "muggleness" than pens? Also, with a name like "spellotape", it's probably magical in some way.

It is Spellotape, not cello tape
Ron was having far worse problems. He had patched up his wand with some borrowed Spellotape, but it seemed to be damaged beyond repair. It kept crackling and sparking at odd moments, and every time Ron tried to transfigure his beetle it engulfed him in thick gray smoke that smelled of rotten eggs... (CoS)
As such, it is a wizarding item, not something produced by Muggles, that means that he is both allowed to use it and has access to it.

@Alex Yes, the question is whether Ron as a Wizard is allowed to use or has acces to Muggle items, probably related to the Statute of Secrecy or the misuse of Muggle Artifacts. But Spellotape is not a Muggle item, it is a wizarding tape.
