Question: Find cheap used Japanese traditional clothes in Yokohama or Shinjuku?

I live in Yokohama (though commute to Shinjuku daily) and am only in Japan for a few more weeks. I would really like to find a cheap--preferably all totaling under $100, used is fine--set of a white hakama, a black kimono, and some kind of black and/or white Haori. If they are separately bought, that is also fine. I hear there are shops where they sell used kimono type clothing.

Anyone know where I could find this?

Answer: Diagonally across the intersection from the GAP in Harajuku/Omotesando is a shop called "Chicago" that is a used/vintage clothing shop. In the far back of the shop, they sell used Kimono.
