Is there something like potion bandoleer, which allows a PC to retrieve a potion or a similar item easily and/or quickly? Or was that an item in other editions of D&D?

Actually, there is a Masterworks Potion Bandoleer in one of the books. It allows you to use a potion as a FREE action and only cost about 50gp. I think it even holds 12 potions, but maybe it's 10. I always have a hard time finding it (because it's not in Complete Scoundrel). It might be in the Faerun campaign book.

If you promise me untold riches, I might be tempted to hunt it down again.

EDIT: Turns out it's 60gp and it allows you to remove the potion as a free action. Masterworks Potion Belt.

I promise I won't tell you how much riches you'll receive - is that the same as untold riches?
 


But strictly speaking, that is 3.0e book. Does somebody know if it is re-written in some 3.5e book or not?


Per the Forgotten Realms wiki:

"3.5 edition
Because this edition of D&D was not wholly new and merely altered the 3rd edition rules, no campaign setting was released to coincide with the adoption of 3.5 edition. Instead, the Player's Guide to Faerûn provides an update to the campaign setting to bring it in line with 3.5 rules."

On more serious note;
there is "Potion bladder" in Drow of the underdark(page 92, 25gp) that enables you to drink a single potion as standard action and NOT provoke AoO.
 

There is the Belt of Hidden Pouches, Magic Item Compendium p.74, worth 5000gp.

This belt has 30 magical pockets like mini-bags of holding, 10 visible, 20 hidden.
Each pocket can hold 1/2 a cubic foot, or 5lbs of non-living matter.
Putting an item in the belt is a move action where you simply press the object against the belt, retrieving an item is a move action that causes the object to spring into your hand as a move action.
putting an object away does not provoke A.o.O., retrieving an item from any of the 20 hidden pockets does not provoke A.o.O., from the 10 visible pockets does provoke A.o.O.

This will work for your potions, as well as dozens of other things.
