Long story short I purchased this as an open box item at Best Buy. Who ever had it before enabled the Reactivation lock feature. I'm assuming that why even after a hard reset it keeps telling me I'm trying to login through the wrong Samsung account.

Am I wrong?

I am pretty sure you are stuck and should return it unless someone else has a special way to override this.

When I purchased my S2, the Best Buy guys were talking about how they couldn't sell these open box because of this activation lock. I still see an "open box" option though on BB's web site. Hopefully they are telling people who return them to deactivate this lock (unfortunately that didn't happen in your case).

Yeah I thought so. Its a shame too because they had it marked down to 250. Thanks for the reply. Awesome Slappy pic BTW.
