ok new plan...i will ask success hk to tick the gift box, i will have it sent to my work adress and i will go with couriered shipping! will that help me avoid it?

most places are law abiding and won't tick the gift box.

oh...what bout using UPS or a similar service and ordering it to a work adress?

they won't tick it gift what ever service you use, and unless you lucky then you'll get import tax. Work adress also makes no difference. Stop being so tight.
