Maybe you watch it more closely than I do, but it seems to me the cash rates have traditionally fluctuated quite a bit at Tokyo Hilton.
I do see that most Dec rates are at least 50,000yen + tax, which is quite high for this property. But keep watching it, and I'm sure it'll come down at some point (then it'll rise back up, then possibly come down or stay up as you get to within a couple weeks of the date).
But if you take a closer date, like June 24th for instance, you will see that they're going for as low as 28k yen + tax refundable rate (still 70k points, though, which is their new floor) which is close to some of the lowest refundable rates I've seen them go for over the past year.
