I remember you said in another thread that you had a beautfiful silver megilah case and instead you used a ziplock bag.

That’s right. I won a megillah at a Chinese Auction quite a while back. With it came a large silver case, with bells. Aside from the fact that the case was far too large for the megillah itself, it was far too ostentatious and showy for me.

Since I don’t like things that I consider ostentatious, I never used the case and instead did carry it around in a Ziploc bag for a few years, until my in-laws bought me a simple wooden case (which I use today).

Apparently hiddur mitzvah means nothing to you.

I wasn’t aware that it was a hiddur to use something that I personally find distasteful. If you have something to the contrary that says that it is, please cite it.
