I don't think it's 2 orders of magnitude, my understanding (based on general spectating for many years) is that it's 0-1, i.e. the ~$80m rocket costs maybe just under $10m, maybe closer to $20m, somewhere in that ballpark. They have reduced the time taken to regularly under 1 month though now so it's possible this is now comfortably the lower end of that.

Are there estimates to how much it costs to refurb a falcon 9? It's gotta be at least 2 orders of magnitude cheaper right?

28 million in 2021 for refurb and launch
