appears to be the jersery that sold in the july 12th Hunt Auctions for $5500. You can review it on the web site. It is listed a professional model jersery. Does not make any mention of being game used.

it is lot 127 in this july 12th auction. Double checking it apprears to be the same jersey. I can find not mention of game used in the Hunt description.

Tags look crisp anyways so can't image it was used.

I did some research on the jersey to decide how high I was going to
bid since you have to question why Ichiro would give away his all star game
jersey, rather than just rely on an LOA with a famous name attached.
Ichiro keeps just about anything of significance and gives it to his father
who displays it in a museum dedicated to his son.

I treated the jersey as an extra and bidded accordingly although the size
and tagging are correct it seemed TO ME, that there seems
to be much more space between the 'T' on the SEATTLE on the
front of the jersey and the 3rd button. I was the second highest bidder
and hopefully it wasn't my eyes playing tricks on me since $5500 even
with the juice is a steal for a real Ichiro All-Star gamer. I'm assuming
many saw the same and passed or bidded accordingly.

Another factor I considered was, a famous photo of Ichiro and Obama in
the locker room of the 2009 All-Star game shows multiple All-Star jerseys
in the players' lockers. I assume players get multiples issued to
them and they are free to do whatever whether they trade or give
them away.

I'm not implying at all that Zane is purposely misrepresenting the jersey
since I'm going by what I see based on my research and thoughts.

Here are pics, let me know what you guys think:

I also was wondering about this item from the same seller.

Frik:

Jersey is team-issued, but highly unlikely to be game worn. At that point in time, both Bagwell and Jeff Biggio wore home and road jerseys supplied by a manufacturer known as Victory. Their only worn Russell gamers were the navy blue alternates.

Hunt lists most of their jerseys as "professional model" as opposed to "game used". Lot 126 in that hunt auction was a Schilling jersey with "extensive usage". The jersey also came with a LOA from Schilling himself yet it still says nothing about being "game worn". I think in order for them to actually list one as game worn they need something like being MLB authenticated.

Bagwell was lot 37 in the July 12 2011 hunt allstar game auction and sold for $600 without the juice. Same comment. Professional model . No mention of game used.
