Pyong's comments:  As you know well, BOOKOFF is the most famous secondhand book store chain in Japan. This store just started to buy and sell secondhand clothing in September 2016. Ogikubo is very popular among young Japanese boys and girls. There are many small restaurants, cafe, and bars. I'm pretty sure that you can enjoy this town and shopping in this store. But please be noted that they sell only men's clothing.
Ah! I forgot to tell you one more thing. Ogikubo is very easy to access. It's about 10 min. from JR Shinjuku station.

Pyong's comments:  The newest one just opened on January 23rd in 2016. The biggest store of Treasure Factory Style, which is one of my most favorite secondhand clothing stores. I visited this store on their opening day and bought 3 very reasonable and cool clothes. What is nice about them is that they separate the space and create specialized corners, such as sport, business, luxury, casual, and vintage.
In most of secondhand stores clothes are displayed in a mess. But here you can find what you want more easily and less stressfully.

Pyong's comments:  Treasure Factory Style is one of the best secondhand stores, as for a price and amount. This one is located in North-West from Tokyo, around 1 hour from the city center. I think it's a bit too far but the city Kawagoe is a famous sightseeing place. the city is called small-edo, edo is a ancient name of Tokyo. So I recommend you to take one day off and enjoy both shopping and sightseeing.

Pyong's comments:  Treasure Factory Style is one of the best secondhand stores, as for a price and amount. This one, located in west Tokyo, around 30 min. from the city center, is the biggest store of Treasure Factory Style group stores, having the largest floor area and amount of the fashion items. If you have any chance to visit Tachikawa (the town doesn't have any special place to be visited, actually) please visit this store first. I'm quite sure that you will find something you wanted here, but if not, please try 2 more other secondhand stores that are very close. Cheers.The followings are other 2 shop's links.
